To do for you -- to see you through?
It's all a dream we dreamed
One afternoon long ago"

Day 8: A song about dreams or dreaming

Paula Cole - "In Our Dreams'

From "Courage", one of Paula's lesser known albums, but beautifully produced and blissful to listen to from start to finish. This is about the loss of a loved one and the yearning for reconnection.

So if you hear me now,
'Cause I know you're out there.
Wait for my homecoming when I cross the other side.
A little bird flew you home,
Now I'm alone, now I'm alone,
The living on's the hardest part,
And the days are endless hours.
But then at night when my soul is in flight,
And together we meet in the galaxy,
Love knows no lease,
We're here in the meadow; our secret place.
We meet again in our dreams.
In our dreams.
In our dreams.
Some days we meet again in our dreams.

Now that you can do it, let's make a chain now

Number One - Skye Sweetnam

I hitched a ride on a Greyhound (Greyhound) stashed away on a train
Bought a ticket for the subway (subway)
Playing guitar in the rain
I wanna follow the rivers to an island in the sun

Day 9: A song that references a train
Day 10: A song that references a truck

This takes care of a today’s and tomorrows prompts…

Well, a friend of mine named Steve Goodman wrote that song
And he told me it was the perfect country & western song
I wrote him back a letter and I told him it was not the perfect country & western song
Because he hadn't said anything at all about mama
Or trains, or trucks, or prison, or getting' drunk

Well, he sat down and wrote another verse to the song and he sent it to me
And after reading it I realized that my friend had written the perfect country & western song
And I felt obliged to include it on this album
The last verse goes like this here

Well, I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison
And I went to pick her up in the rain
But before I could get to the station in my pickup truck
She got run over by a damned old train

David Allen Coe - You Never Even Called Me by My Name
