about

I was baby-sitting. There was an acoustic guitar around, as well as a chord-book with 'classic' acoustic-type songs. I rarely learn covers but I started playing through some of them.

One of them was Dream A Little Dream Of Me, and from there I stumbled upon this song. This nearly made it onto Where The River Runs Both Ways, but I held it back. It's cut from a similar cloth to some of that material.

lyrics

We walk by the side of the river as the fleet leaves the harbour
It's something to see
In our scarves and coats we shiver, by your mother and father
As you hold on to me
There's blood on your knee, we've been climbing trees
That always was you; too brave
May sunbeams warm your heart I pray
That sunbeams find you everyday
When minutes feel like hours, don't you fray
I'll guard your visions and dreams
In the end we couldn't deliver, the spell that was on us
It wasn't to be
But I dreamt we were there in that river, the moonlight upon us
As you hold on to me
In the silvery blue, you were hungry too
In the waters where we wade
May sunbeams warm your heart I pray
That sunbeams find you everyday
When minutes feel like hours, don't you fray
I'll guard your visions and dreams
