1.	LIVING IN A DREAM (radio edit) 04:02	lyrics	buy track
LYRICS Time drifts by minute by minute I'm waiting for life, I'd like to begin it My blood's like molasses, another day passes A slow motion scene, am I living in a dream? I don't know, would it be different If someone could show me what it all meant? Would it change my life's course, with a cause to endorse? You know what I mean? Am I living in a dream Doesn't anyone need me? Oh, someone please lead me I'm sure I would grow if someone would show me Or at least get to know me. Am I living in a dream? Doesn't anyone need me? Oh, someone please lead me I'm sure I would grow if someone would show me Or at least get to know me. Am I living in a dream? A slow motion scene. You know what I mean. Am I living in a dream? Living on a foreign planet A bleak landscape of sandstone and granite Could be heaven I'm in, but some original sin Blocks me like a screen. Am I living in a dream? Doesn't anyone need me? ...

about

In the mid 90s I rescued some rough acoustic demos by playing the tapes one last time as the oxide came off and gummed up the tape recorder heads. At that point, I used to tell people I had written enough songs to keep me recording for the rest of my life. After living in isolation during this covid era, I decided it was finally time to record LIVING IN A DREAM.

Think of it as a mature wine with hints of Marvin Gaye, Pink Floyd and Beach House.
