Joan Baez "The Dream Song" testo

The Dream Song

I had a dream, I was following a barefoot girlBeside a stream that flowed around the worldWe spoke of many things though her mouth never movedAs the most peculiar scenes were disappearing into view

Oh, what a dream, beyond the realm of whyPretty little beings beneath the yawning skySpeaking of God as though they could defineMusic to the deaf and color to the blind or God to man

And then the leaves became a thousand tearsI was on my knees in a crazy house of mirrorsCouldn't find my face but a voice was drawing nearerHush baby, sweet baby, hush don't you cry

And I thought I woke and my mother was standing thereAnd my heart broke as the ribbons in her hairTurned into highways surrounded and swirledLike a crown come down around a not so perfect world

In the corner of the dream was the man with the blue guitarIt had no strings but the music touched the starsHis long dark curls turned to gold before my eyesThe barefoot girl smiled off to the side and it was real

Then a thousand birds took flight with a joyful noiseAnd I heard the angels up on high rejoiceI could see my face and I recognized the voiceHush baby, sweet baby, hush baby, hush

It's just a dream, one of those that goes on and onScene after scene with the rhythm of a gypsy songWhen I really woke, I was frozen in betweenDidn't know who I was, it was a dream inside a dream, it's just a dream

Oh, what a dreamIt's all a dream
