Back to / back into a dream

When you're talking about the ability to "re-visit" a dream that you have just had, and you say:

1) I can go back to a dream.

2) I can go back into a dream.

Is the meaning of these two expressions exactly the same or does the usage of "to" versus "into" change something? And are both versions grammactically correct in this context?
