Steve Forbert - Dream Song Lyrics

Steve Forbert Lyrics

"Dream Song"

In an antique scene
Beyond a great wall
By a moonlit stream
Where nightingales call
Waits a love so fair
With kisses like wine
And her long brown hair
Still gleams in your mind

Need her right now
I'm dreaming of right now
Need her right now
I'm dreaming 'bout right now

By a blue calm sea
With chalky white sky
Near a date palm tree
Where myna birds fly
Lives a sweet old soul
With eyes in your brain
And as you lose control
She helps you maintain

Need her right now
I'm dreaming of right now
Need her right now
I'm dreaming 'bout right now

Well, right now
This concrete right now
This town
Right now
Its heartbeat and sound
Right now
Has caught me right now
I'm bound
Right now
I can't leave this town

But as the crow flies north
For ninety dry miles
Till the ground springs forth
And poppies bloom wild
Stands a pink motel
With wishing well pools
Under shade tree spells
Where everything's cool

Need her right now
I'm dreaming 'bout right now
Need her right now
I'm dreaming 'bout right now
