Bonny light horseman, “summer dream”

from: rolling golden holy, 2022

I saw your face last night
In a heat light storm
Come to me so sad
Sand on your castle
Wanted to touch your hand
Instead I watched you drift away again, mmm
Sometimes I dream
You were in my summer dream again
Some of my dream
You were in my summer dream back then
Tupelo honey sweet
Laughing in the back seat
Summer dream, mmm
On a four-lane
On another ride
On another day
In another lifetime
Held you like a little child
Fell under my spell a while, mmm
Sometimes I dream
You were in my summer dream again
Some of my dream
You were in my summer dream back then
Tupelo honey sweet
Laughing in the back seat
Summer dream, mmm
What we left behind
When the tide went out
It’s a fading line
Don’t know why I trace it still sometime
Smell of rolled cigarette
And your hair when it was wet
Drippin’ on the kitchen floor
Slippin’ through the screen door, screen
’Times I dream
You were in my summer dream again
Some of my dream
You were in my summer dream back then
Tupelo honey sweet
Laughing in the back seat
Summer dream
Sometimes I dream (sometimes I dream)
You were in my summer dream again
(That you were in my summer dream again)
Some of my dream (the summer dream)
You were in my summer dream back then
(You were in my summer dream back then)
Tupelo honey sweet (tupelo honey sweet)
Laughing in the back seat (laughing in the back seat)
Summer dream (a summer dream)

In the scheme of the music biz, they were the next big thing: an alternative supergroup, folkish, indi-rock super trio. And now ep issues and special projects leak out. There are other ways in which to pour out ones creative juices further unfurling their careers, and this group is on to something. Stay tuned

“It may be that when we no longer know which way to go that we have come to our real journey. The mind that is not baffled is not employed. The impeded stream is the one that sings.”
