Is it correct to use the phrase "Dreaming on another love"?
I am aware that the most often used phrase would be "Dreaming of another love", however I wonder if one can say "Dreaming on a star" or "Dreaming on a world" Can one also say "Dreaming on another love"?
I am writing a song & this would be of great help.
Thank you

Song lyrics do not have to follow proper grammar, essentially you can do whatever works best for the rhythm, rhyme, or meaning you want to convey.

It's valid poetic language. Not normal conversational English.

Yeah, the phrase makes sense, I immediately know what you mean even if it is a slight odd way to put it.
