DREAM AWHILE (of grandfather clocks)  (November 2008)
As I am still into my song writing phase,here are the words and chorus of another one of my songs.

DREAM AWHILE
-------------
1st verse
-----------
Dream awhile of distant lands,
of gentle seas and shifting sands,
dream awhile of your precious one
dream awhile,dream awhile,
for she'll soon enough be gone.
2nd verse
------------
Dream awhile of what you'd do,
and while you may,remember you,
can dream awhile of anything,
dream awhile,dream awhile,
for there'll soon be no songs left to sing.

Chorus
-------
You don't have much time in your life,
it's always worry,always strife,
give yourself chance,be what you want to be,
make peace with your soul,set yourself free.

last verse
-----------
Dream awhile of a lonely man,
in his lonely world,and when you can,
dream awhile of what you've been through,
dream awile,dream awhile,
for they'll soon have forgotten you

repeat chorus and last verse.
