Frames, The - Dream Awake Lyrics

Charlie puts photos on his wall

WTF is that Life ? ... more 10 years when I bought Burn The Maps ... All the songs from this album are masterpieces , I knew that I was not wrong with The Frames ... Underglass , Finally , A caution to the birds , Locust ... all masterpieces in one album

Life brought me here too.

Bring Back Life Loved That Show one of the best Shows ever <3 Damien Lewis was amazing :)

Life didn't bring me here. ;)

yeah i heard it on life and loved the song

Life brought me here :D

I heard this song years ago on an episode of Life and always liked it. About fifteen minutes ago, I finished watching a movie called Once for the very first time. The entire time I was watching the movie, this song kept popping in my head. Lo and behold, it's the same guy.

Life brought me here

LIFE. Shazam

life brought me here

Life ! First Episode :-D

Life brought me here too and I'm so happy it did.

Life brought me here too!
Thanks for sharing!

Take us under noooooow!!!

one word - great...

Life brought me here

@Heriberto Arvizu Me too

MMe too!!

Me too.

Life brought me here too..the real life not the tv show lol

É magnífico! The Frames produzem mais que músicas, são canções atemporais. Amo!

Me too!! :)

2:00 arrrrrrgghhhhh !1º·#'?¨´+ª!""!ª

Shat a brick when I found out this was Glen Hansard. Blimey.

17 people are completely INSANE. Glen will you marry me? I could hear you sing all day long :(

Does anybody know what the ending credits song is on "Life"? Been trying to search that for a long time but can't find it anywhere. It's all instrumentals in the credits. If anyone knows, that would be a big help. Thanks.

Lifelong Lullaby by Will Derryberry

@MacieKSC7 Me too. Introduced me to the band. Now they're in my top 5 and i've seen them live.

Only wish the show had lasted as long. :(

Life brought me here.

questa canzone è stupenda, l'ho ascoltata come uktima traccia nella prima puntata del telefilm LIFE, e con mia grande sorpresa ho visto che è cantata da LUI!! che già adoravo, protagonista del film ONCE.

if you love this song, let's see the film ONCE (2006), directed by John Carney... wonderfull!!

@Sarsiegirl yesyesyesyes omfg greatest fucken show ever! found this song with Shazam <3

@marchinguptogether1 You're right. My bad. I'd kill YOUR mother to see Glen perform this song live.

I'd kill my mother to see Glen perform this song live.

I heard it on Life too! Such an amazing song and show.

Thumps up if u heard this great song first time on "Life" and agree that it's awsome show :DD

TheKasikaasu I recently rediscovered it in my amazon library and can’t believe I’d forgotten about it.

@17blackace I heard it there for the first time too :)

@bobina05 me too, I just look out the window, and I look at the sky durimng the climax, and I feel it coursing through me the way alcohol might do, slightly numbed, slighly happy, overwhelmingly lost....

i heard this 2nite, on "Life", and it's a fucking good song! The way it evolves amazes me....

I BASED MY BOOK ON THIS SONG!!

i just heard this song on Rock Paper and fell in love with it!

this song is the one that started my love for this guy!!!

I never hear them on the radio. Why?

ver nice

@MusicIsMyLifeNC

ur lucky dude........this guy has suffer smewhere in his life........he really deserves whatever he is now...

I remember this song from around 2008 i used it on my old IMEEM Account for a photo montage I did! Song Rocks!!

@wackjack10 If you're referring to that chill that runs through you body at times, I've come to decide that's my soul/higher self telling me to pay close attention, for whatever is occurring is a gift which merits your full and complete attention.
Glens music does often elicited that response.

@nicolevalette I've turned a lovely shade of green due to envy.
What an awesome experience fate provided you!

Beautiful. This song moves me. I can't explain the feelings I get from it, but it touches me to the core.

@bestbass42 except much more talented, oh and the singer knows how to sing OUT of studio as well.

Great stuff,reminds me of SNOW PATROL.

@Othelie track 3 on the album Burn the Maps. Picking it up at Barnes & Noble next chance I get

i met him, hungout with him, in whelans, in dublin. he was just there... havin' a pint. we had a great talk, and a few drinks. i still dont believe my own luck. who goes to dublin and meets glen hansard? me... apparently.

@Othelie The album is Burn the Maps

I saw Swell Season in concert! They're soooooo dang goooood!

@hunnerday Glen Hansard.

@lamerox13
I found it in a few seconds ;)
just google it: "for all the time i came home screaming + lyrics"

I love this song ! :)

I love it

@hunnerday I heard it on there too!!! Since I noticed that they were repeating the words "dream awake" a lot, I ended up typing it into iTunes and found it.

Don't take it for granite.... Framess.

Great song!!. Saw them in DK some years ago they blew me away.. If you like this then check out "in every mirror" or "You" by INOUWEE:)

Live (:

@Lynx3106 Yeah, yeah, of course, yeah, I see ! I'm sorry, as I'm French, I wasn't sure about the meaning of "google", but yeah, now I see ! It's in the first episode of the first season, just before this final scene with this music of The Frames ! But I think this scene had been a little bit too short to put the music there, and we don't see enough parts of Charlie's life to be really permeated by the context ...

Episode 1 Season 1 mate

@MrWalterSullivan

It's not in the video, remember the scene where Ted tells Cruise that if you want to know something about somebody then you just have to google him. And then as Crews wants Ted to google him and Charlie remembers how he was sentenced. The scene was briliant.

It was in the first season, but i'm not sure which episode. I'll tell you when I'll find out which episode it was.

@Lynx3106

Yeah, that's what I meant ;)
I don't see what you're talking 'bout ... What scene is it ? I can't remember ...

@MrWalterSullivan
Do u mean the one when Crews comes home in the first episode?

It would have been great if they'd have combined this song with the scene as Ted googles him and Crews remembers his previous life.

@Nellia13

yeah, me too. it's definately awesome in Life, probably because Life itself is more than just awesome.

who's that girl?

@Nellia13 : I loved it too, it was such a great scene.

beautiful song! glen is awesome! :)

Oh yeah. That's a sweet chord.

eek....seems like the dude offed his ex with his car and is singing about it afterwards. mmm....pleasant. Cool song in any case. Reminds me of Mew just a tad

something like jazzrock / Good!

i dont get the video!

This song makes me cry and I don't really know why.

great song... the lyrics in the song are very different from those on the bands official page by the way... I'm guessin the ones on the website are the ones they meant to sing and he ended up recording it with slight variations... plus they sound much better here

This should be the real thing(excuse me if my english is not so good after all)...By the way..this is my favourite song:)along with "all the way down"

I got furious when I looked up the lyrics on google. Every fan submitted variant is sooo horrendously wrong it's an insult :L

He says "Conceding" not "contending" and most definitely NOT "conending"- don't even ask what the fuck that means!!

Whew...just had to vent the rage...

Holy shit!!! When the drums came in and the big sustained pedals and all that!! Wow!!

This song is a killer. Sooooo good.

Glen looks like House!

LOVE Glen, he's an amazing person, too. He actually spent 15 minutes talking to a group of us in the rain after their concert!

1:38 to the end is pure bliss. "Take us under naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaow"

he's in Swell Season too. they made that movie Once about it.

glen hansard is so fucking sexy.

"... and every time i caught you leaving, i had to dream awake, i had to dream awake..."

This is so true for me... without the woman I love in my arms at night, I have to dream awake - only love dares to inveigh my insomnia.

I met that guy in one pup.I didnt expected he will play there. Many songs he played, but what was wonderfull, when he took the bassguitar and play Debaser from Pixies. Than we takled about lots of think. Few weeks after he get the Oscar. I got luck to met him. Great guy, Marketa is right too.

Awesome band. He got an Oscar didn't he.

Apparently i've been living under a rock. loved "once" , but never bothered to check out the Frames. I am a complete ASS ! Holy Jesus on a pony , great tune!!!Now if you'll excuse me< I must go download EVERYTHING from this band!!

Well... their songs give me hope, a beautiful sound reminding you that everything will be alright!

I feel like this guy is standing next to me and singing this song righ to my ear...magic

the frames é muito bom! há tempos que não conhecia uma banda tão boa... excelente!

No I disagree. Their songs don't make me sad, they make me feel. Sadness at times, but often love, longing,joy and more.

Love this song !!!!!

Seeing as how you have just heard of this band you should check out Once, a movie featuring the lead singer of this band, (the guy in the video) where its a sort of musical with him singing a few songs.

hmm... its amazing...

Amazing song, and the video was so well done, there was absolutely no movement (except Glen moving his hands in the car and the girl standing up), everything was just different camera angles.

There is something so intense and beautiful about this song. I can listen to it again and again.

check out the frames - revelate. my favourite song of theirs

Awesome song!
I discovered on Life.
I got hooked and put it on all my playlist's.
^_^
Great band too.

Yes this the song from Life. As a matter of fact if you watch the end of the episode when the music comes on it will say "Dream awake" in subtitles because it is owned by the Frames.

Do not know the Flames, but heard this song on a new show called Life. I will now learn about the Flames. DREAM AWAKE!!
