lyrics

I got a call from an old friend, out of the blue.
We talked from 1am to half past 2.
He had some bad news about some people we knew,
I should have reached out more than I've a tendency to,
but life has a way of obstructing the rear view.
What's in front of you is all it makes sense to pursue.
But catch me up on the last few!
Has it been that long? Shit, the years just flew.
Haven't been a picnic for you,
anytime you wanna get away, feel free to slide through.
I got a guest room & you can meet the crew,
he said "nowadays in your free time, what you like to do?"
I said

I like to dream,
right between the sound machine.
I like to dream,
right between the sound machine.

I like to pretend the sky's a bowl of blueberries in the night,
& the stars are the glints where they catch the light.
Nurturing earth, place of birth beneath us,
& above us is nothing but sweetness.
I like to pretend we never lost contact,
& have the whole rest of the old squad back,
every season is a new crow of fruit,
every tree has more than one root.
& all we gotta do is count blessings, late night couch sessions,
no trace of what the rasta call downpression,
feet in the dirt mound squishes, no house slippers,
pennies saved, ain't no need for fountain wishes.
Nobody feels awkward, a fool,
cuz there ain't no thing as uncool,
nobody feels the need to self-medicate or numb a troubled soul
cuz life is a blueberry bowl.

I like to dream,
right between the sound machine.
I like to dream,
right between the sound machine.

I like to pretend that all you gotta do is follow the creek
through the woods to find what you seek.
It leads everybody to different places,
but the creek itself stays changeless.
In this dream, you never have to move very far,
cuz everyone can feel valued where they are,
& when you die you lose every scar
& rise in the night to be a blueberry star.

I like to dream,
right between the sound machine.
I like to dream,
right between the sound machine.
I like to dream,
right between the sound machine.
I like to dream,
right between the sound machine.
