Hi axwriter,
Thank you for requesting I re-post my answer. Here it is again:
The song you remember is called "Dream Lover" by The Rebel Pebbles.
You can see the lyrics of this song here:

You`re my Dream lover I can find you in my mind, won`t you bring me to
your castle in the sky.
Dream Lover you can take me far away, where blue skies and eternal love lie.
No one else can understand. There is a part of me that only you can see.
Dream lover I can find you in my mind, won`t you bring me to your
castle in the sky.
Dream Lover you can take me far away, where blue skies and eternal love lie...
"The Rebel Pebbles formed in Los Angeles in 1989 and consisted of
singer Rachel Murray, guitarist Karen Blankfeld, bassist Robin Fox and
drummer Cheryl Bullock.
Rachel Murray met Karen Blankfeld - who had previously played drums
for The Pandoras, and bass for Wednesday Week - through a newspaper
ad. Rachel signed on as the singer of the fledgling band, and along
with Cheryl Bullock on drums and Robin Barnetti on bass, The Rebel
Pebbles were ready for the world. They began playing gigs around LA
and recorded a 3 song cassette-only EP for their own Teatime Records
label, called PARTY TIME. The Rebel Pebbles would replace the band's
original bassist Robin Barnetti with Robin Fox following the release
of Party Time, but the EP would do its job admirably by getting the
Rebel Pebbles noticed."
(...)
"Dream Lover would peak at a respectable number 38 on the Billboard
Hot 100; however, the two follow-ups failed to break into the top 40.
The pressures of the constant touring built up and lead to troubles
within the group. Bassist Robin Fox left the band citing musical
differences, and was replaced by Margaret Ford, who fit in nicely with
the band but who never actually signed on. Margaret was replaced by
Leigh Cadwalleter, although there were to be no recording sessions
with this final Rebel Pebbles' line-up. Commitment dwindled, and the
band folded. The Rebel Pebbles had a compelling style, but they were
unable to gain an individual identity. Perhaps in the final analysis,
the Pebbles were simply not allowed to just be themselves and create
the great music they were undoubtedly capable of creating beyond their
first effort."
