Dreamsong

warm breeze on the back of my neck
tall trees swaying from the deck
blue seas and we're headed West in a dreamsong

my baby smiles as she's coming to me
she takes my hand and i'm 17
it's just as good as i thought it would be in this dreamsong

island sand hot beneath my feet
she whispers softly inviting me
to a place i can only see in this dreamsong

follow signs taking us away
no shoes on, it's a holiday
no blues, everything's okay in this dreamsong

no way that i'll ever go home
i'll stay in the bath alone
long naps and i've got no phone in this dreamsong

taxi cab radio is on
turn the dial and they're playing my song
the driver smiles as he sings along and we're LONG GONE

slow hours walking on the beach
her fingers beckon just out of reach
her hand in mine now it all feels complete in this dreamsong
