So I wrote this song/poem a while back and it was being scouted by some record labels. I really loved the premise of meeting someone that you have literally been dreaming about in those lucid fantastical dreams, you know the ones you don't want to wake up from. So, I thought I would share it with the world.
In my Dreams by Atlas Johnson
I walked up to her and I asked her name. I spent all night playing the guessing game.
Where I knew her from was on the tip of my tongue, and it hits me like a heart attack where I knew her from....
~ We were laying down in a meadow and watched the clouds pass.
Spent all night tryin' to make that bottle of champagne last
We laughed at the shapes they made as we poured another glass..
with all the smiles and such the day went by too fast...
We watched the sunset as the blue sky turned pink.
You laid your your head on my chest as if to hear my heart sing.
Singin Love songs it slowed down 'cause I believe..
that one day I would find this girl in my dreams...
....In my dreams...
So I bought her a drink and introduced myself. She said 'Boy that may work on somebody else.'
She said "but that's quite alright" as she pulled out a chair. and "your more than welcome if you would like to sit there"....
*And I didn't tell her 'cause I knew how it would seem,
How would I react if someone told me....
~Last night we were lovin' life in a hot air balloon ride,
Snuggled up you were holding on real tight
I tried all night to get you to open your eyes..
You said No because we were up to high..
So we came down right on the beach...
Walked the shore line, the ocean splashing our feet.
Then I played guitar for you until we fell asleep..
Your still in my Dreams
* I finally said " Girl, I know it sounds crazy, but I feel like I know everything about you
'cause I haven't gone a week this year and had a dream without you"....
~We were on the slopes out in Colorado
You were making angels in the fresh powder snow
How we got there I just don't know
You were getting cold, so we head home...
So I made a fire in our old fireplace.
I watched your cheeks blush as it warms your face.
You whisper softly that you love me.....
I love these Dreams.. oh how I love these Dreams.
