This is NOT about sex. Sorry, kids. It's about dreams, and it feels a little like floating on clouds. Moderately prog-y, it's no King Crimson.

The happy medium. Think Tom Petty fighting with Coldplay over who gets to cover John Mellencamp's songs after R.E.M rewrites them.
Wunderbar is a folk-tinged medium strength rock band that can be applied liberally where needed. If accidentally ingested, do not induce vomiting.

Story behind the song
This is one of my first lyrics. Inspired by the feel of the music. I'm not as proud of it as I once was.
Lyrics
Long gone, I’m long gone I’m long gone again A long long day when I lay me down And float myself above the ground In my dreams I see Rhythms floating over me While I keep time In my dreams I find The hidden music in my mind Now I lay me down to sleep And dig my dreams up from the deep Now I lay me down to rest And dream the dreams that I deem best Every night’s my last Got no future, got no past Just here and now Every night I’m gone And while I dream I fear the dawn Now I lay me down to sleep And dig my dreams up from the deep Now I lay me down to rest My dreams the dream that I dream best When I dream I fight Up against the end of night The best I can When I dream she’s there Wearing flowers in her hair Now I lay me down to sleep And dig my dreams up from the deep Now I lay me down to rest And dream the dreams that I deem best
