Dream to Dream

In the dawning

Of the morning

All is well

And the pieces

Of the night

have all but fell

While the sea gulls

Pick the oceans'

Shorelines clean

I rise

From a dream

To a dream

 

(Chorus)

Is that a wave

Or a thought

Is that a universe

Or a shell

What you have bought

You shall sell

And all I see

Has an abstraction

It seems

So I rise

From a dream

To a dream

 

With the death

Of the day

Sprouts the evening

While the clouds

Flash and spume

I whisper of my love

And my hating

So I seek the caress of the womb

 

Is that a wave

Or a thought

Is that a universe

Or a shell

What you've bought

Don't think you won't sell

All I see

Has an abstraction

It seems

So I rise

From a dream

To a dream

So I rise

From a dream

To a dream
