about

The lyrics to this one were inspired by my little brother Kevin (12 at the time) talking about he could control his dreams at night.

lyrics

you're a complex creature
yeah you're the premium blend
you're a student & a teacher
yeah you're a lover & a friend

sometimes when it seems
to be tearing at the seams
you've got the pen & you're writing the next page of your dreams

they'll fight to get
the rights to it
they'll fight to get
the rights to it

you're a smile drawn in chalk
by an innocent child
you're always down for the walk
no matter how many miles

sometimes when it seems
to be tearing at the seams
you've got the pen & you're writing the next page of your dreams

they'll fight to get
the rights to it
they'll fight to get
the rights to it

& what they really need is right there in front of their face
yeah right there in front of their...
what they really need is right there in front of their face
yeah what I really need is right there in front of my face
yeah what I really need is right there in front of my face
reaching out
reaching out
yeah
