I See You In My Dreams

I’m stranded now
On an island that I built myself
With no room for nobody else
And no way to leave
My lifeboat gone
I let it drift off intentionally
Out to the open sea
To bleach in the sun
Everyone in my life
Had faded away, had ebbed like the tide
So then one day I turned away
I turned inside
And every night it seems
I see you in my dreams
So here am I
Surrounded by sea, beneath the blue sky
The tide and the waves, the sun on my face
The stars in my eyes
And time rolls on
Without regard for you or for me
The Earth and the sea, the great galaxy
Spins endlessly
But every night it seems
I see you in my dreams

Muse
03:09
|
|

She's the solace in my solitude that comes to me
in my sleep
When I'm dreaming I'm convening with my lovely muse
as I snooze
Yeah...
There's a multitude of pulchritude that radiates
from her face
Yeah...
Come on, come to me, baby
I need you so tonight
Come on, fly through my window
Perch on my pillow
Rest your wings a while
Now I'm feeling so light-headed that I levitate
It's great

Highway Signs
04:02
|
|

Highway signs are going by
Watching their reflections slide
Up the windshield as I drive
On the road with you tonight
The sun is sinking in the sky
As we cross the next state line
Days and nights are intertwined
A flashing, pulsing, strobing light
We are rolling down a river
From the past into the future
Getting faster as it slithers
Heading for the open water
Further than we ever were
And things up close are just a blur
How much farther left to go
Is something no one gets to know
Something’s out there up ahead
Coming up around the bend
You will see with your own eyes
It begins to materialize
We are rolling down a river
From the past into the future
Getting faster as it slithers
Heading for the open water

Everything
03:54
|
|
||
|
Everything is an illusion
All you see when you observe
is partially obstructed by the optic nerve
And your brain fills in the scene
with what it thinks that it should be
Everything is an illusion
Through the sky goes the sun
But you know that it's the stationary one
The center of the universe
is not the tiny plant Earth
Everything is an illusion
We are in a simulation

Above the Atmosphere
04:35
|
|
||
|
I was feeling uptight
I looked up at the stars in the night
I could feel my body rise
Floating up into the sky
All the way up here
Above the atmosphere
Looking on down
At the things happening on the ground
High above the clouds
Without a thought of coming down
And I like it here
Above the atmosphere
Drifting along
Singing songs as I go
Head over heels
Tumbling in slo-mo
I’m gonna stay up here
Above the atmosphere

Procrastinator
03:57

'm feeling full, but I've got a lot on my plate
I'll think about it later
I know it's not a good thing but I'm a procrastinator
My to-do list is more like a probably-won't
I could get it done, but then again, I bet I don't
I'll think about it later
I know it's not a good thing but I'm a procrastinator
Drift on, let the current take you
Laugh it up 'til your throat goes dry
Dream on 'til the sunlight's fading
Hang out for a while
They say you shouldn't put it off until tomorrow
A life of laziness will only lead to sorrow
I'll think about it later
I know it's not a good thing but I'm a procrastinator
Drift on, let the current take you
Laugh it up 'til your throat goes dry
Dream on 'til the sunlight's fading
Hang out for a while
I'll think about it later, I'm a procrastinator

Right On
03:06
|
|
||
|
What's that you said
I wasn't listening at all
I'm in my head, I'm watching movies
on the back of my skull
Right On!
I get distracted easily
when we're not talking about..
I hear you talking, but my eyes are looking
up above you
A storm is brewing and we really should get
under cover
Right On!
I get distracted easily
when we're not talking about me
I'm back in mind
most of the time
Right On!
I get distracted easily
when we're not talking about me
Right On!

I'm Ready
03:47
|
|
||
|
I’m driving down the interstate
Watching as the landscape
Is changing shape
Far away and moving fast
What’s behind is in the past
And there it stays
And whatever happens, I’m ready
Whatever’s coming, I’m ready
Untended fields, deserted farms
Broken fences and weathered barns
Are passing by
All my thoughts are fading out
All there is is here and now
The Earth and sky
And whatever happens, I’m ready
Whatever’s coming, I’m ready
Glowing lights of distant towns
Appearing as the sun goes down
As I drive on
Lulling me into a dream
The highway washes me downstream
Toward the unknown
And whatever happens, I’m ready
Whatever’s coming, I’m ready

Bright Side
04:02
|
|
||
|
Drifting in, drifting out
Am I awake again?
Pieces of consciousness
slowly assembling
And now I recall
Yeah she wants it all
Some things are hard to believe
when they’re happening
Everything’s changing
or was I just dreaming then?
And now I recall
Yeah she wants it all
Bright sunlight shines down
on the back yard
White clouds float around
in the blue sky
You can always look on the bright side…

Memories of You
03:40
|
|
||
|
Hear the cries of the night birds calling
From the sky as the twilight’s falling
See the glow of the moon that’s rising
As the sun falls to the horizon
As the night spreads out its fingers
Memories of you still linger
Hear the sound of the tree leaves whistling
Feel the cool of the breeze on your skin
Silhouettes in the silver moonlight
Only seen in the periphery of sight
As the night spreads out its fingers
Memories of you still linger

Please Come Back Home
02:58
|
|
||
|
Oh, Baby, please come back home
I'm going crazy here all alone
The summer moon shines down on the pond
I count the days that you have been gone
What caused your leavin'? Why did you go?
What was the reason? I'll never know
They say what you sow is what you reap
I'll let the frogs now sing me to sleep
Oh. Baby, how can it be?
I thought the only one for you was me
I guess that I was wrong. That's how it goes
Sometimes you can't see beyond your nose
What caused your leavin'? Why did you go?
What was the reason? I'll never know
They say what you sow is what you reap
I'll let the frogs now sing me to sleep
