One of those weird moments today - after decades of knowing PG's songs inside out, it suddenly struck me how many contained references to dreams - thought we could make a list of those lyrics...
I am standing up at the water's edge in my dream...

"Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry."
Here Comes The Flood

Did I dream this belief
Or did I believe this dream?
I Grieve

And the yogi's eyes are open
Looking up above
He too is dreaming of his daddy's love
Father Son

I'm cheating, because dream or variation of the word are many in this song.  Dreaming of Mercy Street |

Make tomorrow, make tomorrow.
Where the dreamer's dream is dared.

Shsking the Tree
Waiting your time, dreaming of a better life
Waiting your time, you're more than just a wife
You don't have to do what your mother has done
She has done, this is your life, this new life has begun

White Ashes - another lost treasure of a song... I like the way that the dream can become a danger to the innocent or naive dreamer.
Mamma's little boy has fallen down,
Mamma's little boy just hit the ground.
Now he's gone, Ion is gone,
His time is done.
The weight of a dream
Can take you down.

one voice
one war
one truth
one dream

Biko
When I try to sleep at night
I can only dream in red
The outside world is black and white
With only one color dead

Whole Thing
One that I love I dream beside
One that I love I dream beside
One that I love is close as I can get
The one that I love I dream beside
Sometimes I can't remember
Sometimes I can't forget
Each night in bed my dreams take me over

Fourteen Black Paintings - one of my least favourite PG songs - sounds like an unfinished song idea to me... don't think I will ever fathom the gap between PG's endless reworking and re-recording of most of his material and tracks like this, which sound less than half-baked.
From the pain come the dream
From the dream come the vision
From the vision come the people
From the people come the power
From this power come the change

Only us sleeping
Only us dreaming
