Background
Lee revealed that she had initially thought that she would not have enough time to work on music as a mother, but noticed that motherhood gave her "a showering of inspiration and fuel". Thus, Lee revealed that except for the everyday errands, she still had time to be creative and record music for Dream Too Much.[4] Lee said the album was going to feature only four or five songs as a sixtieth birthday present for her father, John Lee.[11] However, her manager was approached by Amazon to do a full children's album, and she accepted it.[12]
Aside from the original songs written for the album, Lee also covered Ben King's "Stand By Me" (1961) and "Hello, Goodbye" (1967) by The Beatles. A writer with Loudwire noted the broader reach of these songs which could appeal to adult listeners as well.[4]
