Dreams


(B. Cummings - D. Troiano)

I was lost and tossed on a misty morning by a drunken sailor and the genie in the bottle let me down,
I was raised on Cain, in the name of the Father and the Mother and the brother and the other who was never even round,
On a windswept coast with the Black Knight falling I was heard to be calling that my ship and all it's crew were going down,
As the sun ran slowly by a childhood rivulet a jeweled King summoned me, commanding that I run and tell the town,
Saw you, saw me, run quickly now,
Run and hide away,
Run and hide today.

In a room in a castle full of faceless lovers I was cut and bleeding and the image in the mirror struck me down,
I was chased and beaten by a well-drilled team of little men breathing colors and abandoned in a coffin in the ground,
As a pale young virgin made a meal of a martyr she was hailed as Holy by the only ones who stood and held their ground,
When a bright Mona Lisa with the eyes of a tiger read a new proclamation I was stricken from her list and never found,
Saw you, saw me, run quickly now,
Run and hide away,
Run and hide today.
Seems they come and go so quickly,
Disappear like sunlight in the evening,
And they may not ever be explained.

Seems like they come and go so quickly,
Disappearin' in the air like a breath of wind,
And they may not ever be explained,
And I woke up thinkin' I was dyin',
If you find one hang on with all you got
Way down deep, deep in your soul,
For it may not ever come again,
And I woke up crying like a baby,
Hey yay yay yay...
No they may not ever be explained.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Guess Who is a legendary Canadian rock band formed in Winnipeg, Manitoba, in 1968. Considered one of the first Canadian rock bands to achieve international success while remaining in their home country, they marked an era in their nation's music. Initially produced by Jack Richardson, they were the first to top the American charts with a Canadian rock song. The group went through several phases and lineup changes over the years, but its distinctive sound, characterized by bluesy riffs, catchy melodies, and introspective lyrics, remained constant. Among their most famous songs are "American Woman", "These Eyes", and "Clap for the Wolfman". Their 1970 album "American Woman" achieved international success, solidifying the band's position as one of the most influential in Canadian rock.
