"Waltz Away Dreaming" is a 1997 song by Irish singer Toby Bourke and British singer George Michael. It was released in May 1997 in the United Kingdom as the lead single to Bourke's 2000 album Room 21. A pop ballad, the song was a top ten hit, charting at number ten on the UK Singles Chart, and staying in the charts for four weeks. It remains as Bourke's only hit.

A music video was made for the single. The single was slightly remixed by Tim Hammill in 1999 and was released as "Waltz Away Dreaming '99" in Europe.

"Waltz Away Dreaming" has not appeared on any of Michael's studio albums. It did eventually appear in 1998 on his greatest hits album Ladies & Gentlemen: The Best of George Michael, but only on the cassette and MiniDisc versions.
