I had a dream last night
The worst in many years
Had me biting on my pillow
Had me waking up in tears
I was knocking on a door
I'd been knocking all my life
Expecting great things on the other side
On the other side
Expecting great things on the other side
There was a beam of light
I sensed the time was near
I was getting all excited
Saw my future bright and clear
The lock gave out a roar
And the door slid open wide
I was free to walk out on the other side
On the other side
Finally free to walk out on the other side
That's when the dream got frightening
I was not at all prepared
For the empty hall that met me
And the truth that lived in there
The castle and the king
And the diamonds in the sky
Were nowhere to be seen on the other side
On the other side
No, there were no lights on the other side
On the other side
Yeah, the lights were off on the other side
Now, if the dream is right
And if I'm thinking clear
I guess I should be thankful to have woken up right here
And not half-way up a ladder into an empty sky
Not looking for a better place to live my life
No, I think I'll just stay and live it on this side
On this side
I'll just stay and live my life on this side

Tina Dico, pseudonimo di Tina Dickow Danielsen, è una cantautrice danese nata a Copenaghen nel 1978. Dopo aver studiato musica al conservatorio di Aarhus, ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale negli anni '90 con il gruppo indie pop The Blue Van. Nel 2003 ha debuttato come solista con l'album "The Heart Is A Drum", che le ha valso un grande successo in Danimarca e attenzione internazionale. Dico è nota per il suo stile musicale unico, che fonde elementi di folk, pop, elettronica e jazz, caratterizzato da melodie orecchiabili e testi introspettivi. La sua musica è spesso descritta come intima, poetica e malinconica. Nel 2006 ha fondato la propria etichetta discografica, 'Dico Records', per mantenere il controllo creativo sul suo lavoro. Tra i suoi album più importanti ricordiamo "Count The Waves" (2005), "The Heart Is A Drum" (2003) e "In the Middle of It All" (2010). Alcuni dei brani più rappresentativi di Tina Dico sono: 'Someday', 'I'm Not Afraid', 'You Are My Everything'.
