These Dreams (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

She lies on the bed
With her hands in her head
And she screams
He gets a kick out of losing the plot so it seems
He makes you all laugh so she’s the one
Doing harm
But how can you fight when she’s not
The one under his arm

These dreams have let you down
Take it don’t break it just turn it around
These dreams won’t let you down

You never stopped loving his misfortunate
Lazy ways
All the memories that you should’ve had
Are a cabaret haze
There’s just a hole where you know he
Should’ve been
There’s no one worse off than you
When you can’t describe what you’ve seen

These dreams have let you down
Take it don’t break it just it turn around
These dreams won’t let you down

Where do you go when you’re all alone
In your bed
Do you cry in your sleep cos it’s
Better unsaid
Have you forgotten your past because
That’s how it seems
Is it too hard to think so you edit
Your dreams
And play them back again and again

These dreams have let you down
Take it don’t break it just turn it around
These dreams won’t let you down

These dreams have let you down
Take it don’t break it just turn it around
These dreams won’t let you down

You’ve got tomorrow tomorrow
You’ve got tomorrow tomorrow
You’ve got tomorrow tomorrow
You’ve got tomorrow tomorrow
You’ve got tomorrow tomorrow

These Dreams (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Spare a little candle, save some light for me. Figures up ahead moving in the trees. White skin in linen, perfume on my wrist, and the full moon that hangs over these dreams in the mist.

Darkness on the edge, shadows where I stand. I search for the time on a watch with no hands. I want to see you clearly, come closer than this. But all I remember are the dreams in the mist.

CHORUS:
These dreams go on when I close my eyes. Every second of the night, I live another life. These dreams that sleep when it’s cold outside, every moment I’m awake, thr further I’m away.

Is it cloak and dagger? Could it be spring or fall? I walk without a cut through a stained glass wall. Weaker in my eyesight, a candle in my grip and words that have no form are falling from my lips.

CHORUS:
These dreams go on when I close my eyes. Every second of the night, I live another life. These dreams that sleep when it’s cold outside, every moment I’m awake, thr further I’m away.

BRIDGE:
There’s somethin’ out there I can’t resist. I need to hide away from the pain. There’s somethin’ out there I can’t resist.

The sweetest song is silence that I’ve ever heard. Funny how your feet in dreams never touched the earth. In a wood full of princes, freedom is a kiss. But the prince hides his face from dreams in the mist.

CHORUS:
These dreams go on when I close my eyes. Every second of the night, I live another life. These dreams that sleep when it’s cold outside, every moment I’m awake, thr further I’m away.

CHORUS:
These dreams go on when I close my eyes. Every second of the night, I live another life. These dreams that sleep when it’s cold outside, every moment I’m awake, thr further I’m away.

Paul foglino

Every day i get up and the day begins
And every day i dig a hole and i fill it in
People say, "you’re crazy, man, now don’t you care
But i know there’s treasure buried right down there
I watch my dreams collect like dirt around a poor boy’s neck

These dreams shine like diamonds
Down in my soul
These dreams shine like diamonds
And i’m digging for coal

Sometimes it gets so hard to bear
When people look at me like i’m not even there
Or ask me what i’ve got to say
And nod their heads like it don’t matter anyway
They don’t pay me any mind cause i’m too dumb or they’re too blind

I see people get ahead
Or people eating cake instead of daily bread
But i ain’t got it all that rough
If dreams don’t take me anywhere they seem to take me far enough
It ain’t much but it’s okay to sleep all night and dream all day

Aiyyo put one in the air for the ancestors, y’know?
Cause without them, there’d be no us, that’s real
There’s something on my mind.. everyday, all the time
It’s the legacy, y’know? generations, of black people
Now bust this..

Aiyyo i think about this government, three strikes capital punishment
Enslaved my peoples for four hun-d-red
Yeah, plus some
Often dream of goin back in time and givin slaves guns {*buk!*}
So they can watch the master run
Watch them devil try to get away then clap his back with the shotgun
I got one, let’s cut his head off
Let’s take it to harriet tubman, show her that we ready to set it off
She get nat turner, nat go get sojourner
Sojourner send a messanger for touissant l’overture
Through the underground railroad, we go
Through the dark to the edge of forrest to meet with denmark
Vessey, you know he got soldiers ready
Ready to kill like lions, in the serengeti
So like a stampede we rush the plantation
Settin fire to everything, burn them down like cremation
No hesitation, free up the black nation
Kill them devils take his ships and head back for the mainland
The game plan, yet and still it’s just a dream
I never forget, in my mind it never leave, aiyyo

[chorus 2x: defari]
I never forget, in my mind it never leave
These dreams, filled with days of slavery
Never forget, in my mind it never leave
These dreams, filled with days of slavery

[defari]
Yo, aiyyo jamie was a slave
Every baby she’d have the master would take away
She never seen one long enough to give a name
Everytime the master would rape, jamie’d feel ashamed
She was only fourteen
Violated, used and abused, far from a queen
I met jamie in a dream
I gave her a brand new m-16 with two magazines
I told her next time he come around
Act like you want him, get him to lay down
Make sure that he take off his clothing
After that i want you to fill him up, full of bullet holes
Release the whole clip, set trip on that motherfucker
Tell him that’s for disrespectin you and your mother
Your grandmother, your great-grandmother
Your brother your father, in the land they call the mother
Next thing you do is round up all the rest
Stay together and shoot your way to freedom, god bless, aiyyo

[chorus] – 1.5x

[defari]
Aiyyo, i got dj babu in the house
From the world famous, beat junkies
Aiyyo, yo babs how you feel about this?
And this goes out to all the ancestors
Especially to my grandmother (??)
The foundation, rest in peace
Love you grandma

These dreams go on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night I live another life
These dreams that sleep when it’s cold outside
Every moment I’m awake the further I’m away

Is it cloak ‘n dagger
Could it be spring or fall

Through a stained glass wall
Weaker in my eyesight

And words that have no form
Are falling from my lips

There’s something out there
I can’t resist
I need to hide away from the pain
There’s something out there
I can’t resist
The sweetest song is silence

Every second of the night I live another life
These dreams that sleep when it’s cold outside
Every moment I’m awake the further I’m away

Once we were lovers
But somehow things have changed
Now we’re just lonely people
Tryin’ to forget each other’s names
Now we’re just lonely people
Tryin’ to forget each other’s names

What came between us?
Maybe we were just too young to know
But now and then
I feel the same,
And sometimes at night i think
I hear you calling my name
Mmm-hmm-mmm these dreams
They keep me going these days

Once we were lovers
But that was long ago
We lived together then
And now we do not even say hello
We lived together then
And now we do not even say hello

What came between us?
Maybe we were just too young to know
But now and then
I feel the same,
And sometimes at night i think
I hear you calling my name
Mmm-hmm-mmm these dreams
They keep me going these days

These Dreams (Letra)

I keep my hopes and dreams inside of you
Amongst the other things my mother seems to never see
The bruises that I’m covering,
Never been known by my government name,
My foster home is where I’ve been placed
Away from the pain,
So as you sit before me with a folder holding my story,
You’re my savior with nothing on me but power and glory,
And surely you’ll never ignore cos
When the the court came
the court date was made to disappear for me,
You think you understand me
But never what I went through
But you were never meant to
I won’t hold it against you,
I take a ballpoint pen to play dot to dot
With the cigarette burns etched in my forearms,
Forget me not never let me stop
You’ll just sit and watch it’s your job
To be patient so you’ll let me off,
So come with me take a walk on the wild side,
See life in a day through a child’s eyes,
And these dreams are all I have, to hold me,
When sleeps the only thing that I want
To take me away, away,
Okay sessions over time to get back to the classroom
I hate this lesson and I guess the teacher finds it hard to,
You told me I should try my best
But guess what I still find this trigonometry a head fuck,
Constantly told I won’t pass my GCSE’s,
I’ll end up in Mac D’s serving burgers and cheese,
But you told me I can do anything if I put my mind to it,
Mistakes make a change
If you put a line through ‘em,
Lately classmates think I’m crazy
Turn up daily resembling Bill Bailey,
And I ain’t saying that I can’t be groomed with it
Without new clothes or shower it hard to do,
So after school you’ll take me shopping for some new clothes
But they’ll get taken off me when I get back to the group home,
So come with me take a walk on the wild side
See life in a day through a child’s eyes,
And these dreams are all I have, to hold me,
When sleeps the only thing that I want to take me away, away.
