about

The melody of this song was literally born out of a dream in the middle of the night, compelling one of us to wake up and decipher the chords till the melody crystallized.
The song imagines what it feels like when life itself becomes the waking dream..

lyrics

Waking Dream
I used to fall sleep at night, finally close my eyes
Up was down, left was right, descend into sleep time
Now each morning when I rise and open up my eyes
Everything so bright and new, with wonder and surprise
Floating in a cloud of Love, watching the sun rise
Ascend into waking dream, gently taking flight

The end of loneliness is here
I never feel afraid
I sing from the moment that I wake
And dance throughout the day
I revel in the morning
I thank the afternoon
I celebrate each evening
Every moment spent with you

The day you came and woke me up, to revel in the light
Shook the slumber from my eyes, now everything's alright
Walking through this waking dream, equals side by side
Now every day's a waking dream, much better than the night
Canvas of a sea of clouds. Painting a new life
Every brush stroke ecstasy, with shadow play and light

The day you came and woke me up, to revel in this life
Shook the slumber from my eyes, now everything's alright
Walking through this waking dream, equals side by side
Now every day's a waking dream, much better than the night

I've followed St Vincent since the beginning. This album is really interesting as she explores 70s funk, blues, psych rock while bringing her unique vibes into the music. Venusia
