I once had a dream and I chased it 'til it ended, Then I chased it 'til it disappeared around the bend, I chased it 'til the thunder clapped, Chased it 'til the wheels fell off, Until I could no longer move my fingers 'round a pen to write, Chased it 'til the end, I chased it 'til the night came calling, 'Til my body gave away into the angels falling tears no Tears for you darling 'cuz you helped me to the morning, No mourning, my baby, Late 80's, driving her Mercedes to the NASA base, Shipping off my ashes to the blackness in space, And then I kept chasing that dream, Little did I know I lived it all the way, Grass is always greener human being, Earthling, and pre-teener Sifted through my memories, Always fell in love with everything, I fell in love with art, I fell in love with her, I fell in love with healing, Feeling what your feeling, Bad and good, Linoleum to ceiling, That I could do very well, Still have vices in my essence, On to the next tale, Still in love, Still in love with that dream. The dream won't let me go, Still in love with that dream, Until I reach the top. Fall in love every chance that you get, 'Cuz love became the one commodity I miss the most, When I left behind the gift of life and earth and pain and strife, Yes I no longer feel the pain of living inside that lonely brain, The only thingling that came with light is darkness, Had to have both to spark the fire, Keeping me warm inside with desire, Also caused me to perspire, Living is a hot road, Charcoals that glow across the globe, Hot stove burn our fingers and toes, But once we go we're gonna wanna feel that feeling anyway, It flows on like the river Jordan as I sit here Recording, Think about how much I fall in love with the music, Making this music soothes my soul. The dream won't let me go, Still in love with that dream, Until I reach the top.
