* Cast your doubt into the ocean. Sail your fears on out to sea. No one�s asked you to walk on water. Come on, take a dive in the River of Dreams. 1. Let�s pretend it�s �Gilligan�s Island.� I�ll profess. You be Maryanne. We�ll take a cruise on the Love Boat. Laugh at Isaac�s corny jokes. And waterski our way to Disneyland. * Cast your doubt into the ocean. Sail your fears on out to sea. No one�s asked you to walk on water. Come on, take a dive in the River of Dreams. 2. You fear the sharks around you You�ve just seen �Jaws� too many times. This ain�t no Daggobah. Leave the Wizard back in Oz. Kick off the ruby shoes and you�ll feel fine. + Dive in. Take a swim. Dive into love. GUITAR SOLO 3. Your faith is slowly sinking. You�ve waited too long on the shore. Rent a yellow submarine. Take the Brady�s snorkeling. Come on in, my dear, the water�s warm. * Cast your doubt into the ocean. Sail your fears on out to sea. No one�s asked you to walk on water. Come on, take a dive in the River of Dreams. Come on, take a dive in the River of Dreams Words: Steve Stewart Music: Steve Stewart & John Beck� 1998
The lyrics were written in about ten minutes. I kind of just free associated thoughts of American pop culture and water images...TV reruns and movies that fascinated me. (Either that, or I was trying to write a theme song for Speilberg's DIVE! restaurants in a blatant sell-out attempt to get Dreamworks Records to sign our band. Stuff art. Let's dance!)
