Name: Dream Away
Duration: P00H03M04S
Description: A nice sleepy little guitar track. It was meant to be in a sort of 50s pop song vibe. I didn't write it for anyone in particular, but it does remind me of my sister, Jessica. I'm not sure why. I haven't spoken to her in almost three years.

A nice sleepy little guitar track. It was meant to be in a sort of 50s pop song vibe. I didn't write it for anyone in particular, but it does remind me of my sister, Jessica. I'm not sure why. I haven't spoken to her in almost three years.

lyrics

Dream away
Dream of mountains that crumble
Dream away
Dream of a better tomorrow
Dream away
Dream of a place for you and I

Dream away
You know there's nothing wrong with trying
Dream away
With wings too short for flying
Let the sun
Warm your face while you sleep

I know
Tomorrow's never sure
I know
For a broken heart there is no cure
Just sleep
And dream of all the promises you'll keep

Dream away
Since when does darkness really matter
For I've learned
We take for granted our own sleep
Beyond the dream
Witness the silence I can keep

So just dream
Of fields covered and trees cherry
A silent weep
As they fall so carefully
For we know
We're not as strong as we think

Carry on
What else can we choose?
Carry on
In our tattered little shoes
Just believe
Everything's better when we dream
