DREAMTIME (Ralph McTell)
The scent, a smoke on desert wind Beneath the Southern Cross Far beyond where time begins And generations loss
I could not be further from you Now with both feet on the ground But in the dreamtime Souls take flight I am a closer to you now
If I should lay me down to sleep By forest green or shining lake I could arise to find you gone To take for granted my mistake
Yet I could not be further from you Now with both feet on the ground But in the dreamtime Souls take flight I am a closer to you now
Mountains crumble forests vanish Seeds awakened by the fire Water air and earth have borne them And I can feel my old ones near
Yet I could not be further from you Now with both feet on the ground But in the dreamtime Souls take flight And I am a closer to you now
Flames are dancing in the fire Timeless songs are on the air In the wilderness they're crying But there is laughter everywhere
And I could not be further from you Now with both feet on the ground But in the dreamtime Souls take flight I am a closer to you now. I am a closer to you now.
