dream

I discovered the lovely Priscilla Ahn a couple years ago and one of her songs has been my absolute favorite ever since. Every time I hear it I have the urge to close my eyes and imagine myself in a big field under a tree with the sun shining brightly through the leaves. It just warms my heart and soul. I think we all have dreams, whether big or small...and I think these lyrics can speak to all of us. Keep dreaming everyone!

Dream

I was a little girl alone in my little world who dreamed of a little home for me.

I played pretend between the trees, and fed my houseguests bark and leaves, and laughed in my pretty bed of green.

I had a dream
That I could fly from the highest swing.
I had a dream.

Long walks in the dark through woods grown behind the park, I asked God who I'm supposed to be.
The stars smiled down on me, God answered in silent reverie. I said a prayer and fell asleep.

I had a dream
That I could fly from the highest tree.
I had a dream.

Now I'm old and feeling grey. I don't know what's left to say about this life I'm willing to leave.
I lived it full and I lived it well, there's many tales I've lived to tell. I'm ready now, I'm ready now, I'm ready now to fly from the highest wing.
