Newton Faulkner  Dream Catch Me 

There comes a point in an author's life where they have to face the facts. I'm an author. May sound silly, but it was the hardest words to admit to myself. I'm an author. I still feel the need to say it over and over again. 

When I write, one of the many artist I love to listen to is Newton Faulkner. I love Newton Faulkner! He is amazing! His song Dream Catch Me sums up the way  I feel about being an author. Here are the lyrics to those not familiar with the song.

There's a place I go when I'm alone
Do anything I want, be anyone I wanna be
But it is us I see
And I cannot believe I'm falling

That's where I'm going, where are you going
Hold it close, won't let this go
Dream catch me yeah
Dream catch me when I fall
Or else I won't come back at all

You do so much
But you don't know... it's true
And I know now who I am
Yeah yeah yeah
And I know now

There's a place I go when I'm alone
Do anything I want, be anyone I wanna be
But it is us I see
And I cannot believe I'm falling

That's where I'm going, where are you going
Hold it close, won't let this go
Dream catch me yeah
Dream catch me when I fall
Or else I won't come back at all

See you as a mountaina fountain of God
See you as a descant soul
in the setting sun
you as a sound just as silent as none
I'm young

There's a place I go when I'm alone
Do anything I want, be anyone I wanna be
But it is us I see
And I cannot believe I'm falling

There's a place I go when I'm alone
Do anything I want, be anyone I wanna be
But it is us I see
And I cannot believe I'm falling

That's where I'm going, where are you going
Hold it close, won't let this go
Dream catch me, yeah
Dream catch me when I fall
Or else I won't come back at all


There's a place I go when I'm alone, do anything I want, be anyone I want to be. The place I go with my characters is one I don't want to come back from. I'm truly blessed.
