| Our dreams they take us places, do we want to go? Into the future we try to see through them To the special things that are yet to be We look to these dreams to guide our way Making adjustments here and there to be Should our dreams touch on reality? I have so many dreams for me; they are constant in my head Someday I'm sure I'll find, Unconscious meeting conscious But will those be my dreams there for me? I look forward to the day that will come and know I will for sure, what things I dream As I to them, should they come to pass These dreams I have and good they feel But others there are running inside my head Wake up in a panic, in darkness in my bed I see there the stairway up it leads to dark What lurks there to cause me fear? I just want to go to sleep beyond the darkness there I was but a tiny little boy back then Never knowing what to expect Always feeling safe from harm, but not when going to bed I've dreamed this darkness many times; Try to see what's there What is this demon waiting there for me? It's there at the top of the stairs I've accepted long ago that this dream in me remains To wake me now into the night, unable to explain Is it real this fear I feel or child fantasy? Not as often does this dream come to me But it's there for me to see Someday will I have the courage to see the reality? Tonight I'll go upon my bed With thoughts of good dreams to come Never knowing which I'll get before the rising sun Jim Ferrell |
