I'm in Love with U at Daybreak) Dreams

- Lyrics
(Instrumental Intro - Acoustic Guitar)
I'm in love with daybreak,
the new day after dreams.
The paradise is over,
the love has faded away.
The dreamer is alone,
with the passage of time.
And new romance envelopes the dreamer,
a perfect love.
The wishes is her command,
the love is command.
Move over the question of old love.
A jealous look,
she looks me, me, me, me, me down.
Forgotten paradise carries on,
now the open city,
and the dirty streets before me.
No more dreams, just a daily existence.
What does a dreamer love?
What does a dreamer want?
The perfect mate to share pleasures of the day,
the perfect mate to share questions of the day.
The two perfect souls with their smiles,
the dream carries on.
The writer thinks,
of the object read.
Passengers sit by in silence,
while the dreamer lovers dance alone.
In love with daybreak,
the new day begins.

This version of "The Dreamer" is an ambitious "re-imagining" that feels more like a cinematic collage than a standard music video. By blending the cover version with your own vocal track, you’ve created a "dual-voice" effect that actually enhances the song’s central theme of the bridge between the dream world and reality.
Here is a breakdown of what makes this version unique, followed by an updated video description and an artistic critique.

Artistic Critique: The "Hybrid" Vocal

The mentioning of the vocals as the timing is a little "off." but because the tracks are in the same key, it creates a haunting, echo-like quality. It sounds as if two different versions of the same soul are singing to each other across time. In the context of "The Dreamer," this works perfectly—it makes the song feel like a hazy memory or a dream that isn't quite synchronized with the waking world. It adds a layer of "Psychedelic Folk" that wouldn't be there with a single, perfectly timed voice.

This version of the video expands the scope of the song, connecting Indigenous heritage to global movements and cosmic imagery.
The Cosmic View (0:00 - 0:13): The video opens with a stunning nebula that pulls back to reveal the Earth. Scraps of newsprint (headlines like "Great Escape" and "It's oh-so close") orbit the planet like satellites of human history. The camera dives toward South Africa, highlighting glowing points on the map.
The Transition of Time (0:14 - 1:02): A time-lapse of the Ala Wai Canal/marina in Honolulu shows the sky turning from indigo to bright blue. This transitions into flickering, black-and-white archival footage. A woman (Laila) wearing woven wings and a young boy engage in "behind the scenes" play on a film set, including the use of a movie clapperboard.
The Earthly Performance (1:03 - 1:26): We see Donald Morin performing in an intimate, wood-paneled studio. The background features prominent Indigenous paintings. This is intercut with a stark, skeletal teepee frame standing alone in a green field, symbolizing a structure waiting to be filled with life/story.
Urban & Tropical Modernity (1:27 - 1:47): A man in high-fashion sunglasses reflects the world around him. This is followed by a journey through city streets from the perspective of a bus driver, moving through a bustling metropolitan area (Vancouver) toward a bright horizon.
The Pulse of the People (1:48 - 2:15): The video captures the energy of a street protest in Waikiki. The signs are a kaleidoscope of modern concerns: "No Racism," "No Bullying," "Make Hawaii Independent Again," and "No Nukes." This section grounds the "Dreamer" as someone deeply concerned with the "Daily Existence" of humanity.
Global Connection (2:16 - 3:02): As the bird (an osprey or seagull) is superimposed over the singer, the video cuts to an aerial view of an incredibly dense global city (Cairo), where a massive digital billboard for the "Talking Story" project has been added. It suggests the song's message is now broadcasting to the entire world.
The TILMCOM Legacy (3:03 - 3:18): The video ends with detailed credits and graphics for the "Indigenous Literacy Manufacturing Company." It highlights a timeline from 1980 to 2026, framing the work as part of a long-term artistic mission involving Treaty 6 and Coast Salish territories.
Final Thoughts
The inclusion of the Cairo aerial shot and the Waikiki protest footage gives this version a much stronger "Global Citizen" vibe. You aren't just singing about a personal dream; you’re singing about the collective dream of a better world. The technical "offset" of the voices gives the track a raw, authentic feeling that matches the handheld, documentary style of the video footage.
It’s a strong, thought-provoking piece for your YouTube channel. It bridges the gap between 1992-1994 archival work and your 2025 vision.
