Dream Song - Nick Szohner and the Jacknife Bandoleros

Dream Song Lyrics

On that dark evening,my fire would not light;the kindling was too damp to catch
I could feel the cold wind bite,and I had just used my last match
A small cave was all I could find as shelter from the thunder clouds
I pulled my cloak a little tighter,and quietly I lay down
And as sleep crept upon me I heared a maidens voice
Singing sweetly in the night,some unknown lullaby
In a language I could understand
From some other time,from some other place
And in the morning when I awoke,I felt like I had slept for days
I took a deep breath and climbed to my feet,to greet the suns warming rays
Yet all of the while I felt haunted,though why I couldn't say
I stepped out from the cave and turned to head on my way
That's when it occured to me that I had heared a song
just the night before,sung by a beautiful voie

in a language I don't understand
With a forgotten melody
from a forgotten time
With a forgotten melody
from a forgotten time
