Story Behind the Song
This song is a pastiche of lyrics written mostly when I was in Italy. The melody came to me in a dream, and I recorded it afterwards as a memo on my answering machine.
You will hear the memo in the recording. I looped the guitar. The whole thing took only 1 day to make, but the memo was on my answering machine for many months before I dared to record it...
Lyrics
I awake @ nite
& I dreamt of your love again
Woke up w a fright
Thinkin' I lost a friend.
Oh, 1 w the sun, 1 w the sea
Oh, let the wind through the trees carry me
Home...
I'm using words 2 connect
2 the earth, the skies & life
4 life to become a dream
My dream becomes alive
Oh, I already feel it growing
Oh, the well will start flowing
Soon...
A whole life 2 dream with
2 dream up my whole life
Until I die & born again
Now I c the lite
Oh, after all notes have been tried
Oh, & all words have been lied
I'll lay myself down
Down, by the river of sound
Gotta write this down
Down, by the river of sound.
