Lyrics
Dream Me (from 5 Acres") words&music 2003 Deborah Crooks & Tim Salz
There's fighting all around/I hear it in the sound/of traffic, TV and war plane
I want to believe/we can all be free/not running away from each other's hearts
Dream me/I'll dream you/somehow we'll make it through
There's fog over the bridge/that I want to build/span the divide between me and you.
we've been through it all/taken every fall/le'ts hope we can learn from all those mistakes
Chorus
I've known fear well/I've lived under it's spell/I've walked alone with all of my doubt
just take my hand/I'll try and understand/what it's like to live in your skin
Dream me/I'll dream you/somehow we'll make it through
