I don't think you can copyright a song title. A lyric, yes, but not a song title. Otherwise, there wouldn't be multiple songs called "Save Me" or "Don't Stop" written by multiple writers. There is nothing stopping you from writing a song called "Dreams" as long as the lyrics and melody are different from Stevie's and every other songwriter's version of a song called "Dreams."
