about

A song about the magic of dreams that has an indie rock vibe combined with a sweet violin part, sprinkled with some facts about your brain and sleep. Marsha says, "The beginning lines for this song came to me when I was getting my middle son (now a college student) up for kindergarten and he wanted to go back to his dream. I eventually came back to that song idea and it turned into this song with a more fanciful idea of what if you could choose to meet whoever you want in your dream?"

lyrics

Oh you can’t go back to your dreams,
As unfair as it may seem.
Sometimes you’re pulled away
From an amazing day
When the alarm clock calls you to reality.

What if you meet me in my dreams?
Outside it’s dark skies, stars & moonbeams.
But when you meet me in my dreams.
I want it to be as real as it seems.

And when you wake up it’s a new day.
Will you go outside and get a chance to play?
Yeah, you have work to do.
And that’s part of life, too.
But keep the fun in mind and you’ll be OK.

What if you meet me in my dreams?
Outside it’s dark skies, stars & moonbeams.
But when you meet me in my dreams.
I want it to be as real as it seems.

What if you meet me in my dreams?
I’ll skip the dark skies, my moonbeam.
I’ll take the stardust and its schemes.
As it weaves stories in my dreams.

You know I wanna get more sleep.
Slow-wave comes first, your brain needs to go deep.
But when you breathe and relax.
Cool and calm, stress will pass.
Then dream: imagination mixed with memory.

What if you meet me in my dreams?
Outside it’s dark skies, stars & moonbeams.
But when you meet me in my dreams.
I want it to be as real as it seems.
I want it to be as real as it seems.
