Falling Through a Dream
I've had this one knocking about for a while - with the idea of the central Spanish Guitar instrumental that follows the tune. The lyrics came out a bit mournful but that's what seemed to fit the mood.
Am Dm7 G Am
Am G Am
F G Am
F E (F E)
G D Dm Am
G Am F E (F E)
Falling through a dream, this scene is over just as it’s begun
Falling through a dream it seems I’m never gonna be the one
For just a moment there I though my luck had turned
But what I thought was love was just concern
Falling through a dream, serene contentment is now in the past
Falling through a dream my schemes were empty and just couldn’t last
I took what you gave and built a house of straw
I tried to spin ephemera to evermore
Holding on to yearning
Though my eyes are burning
Was I so undiscerning? true
What price now the future
Now nothing I can do will suit you
Everything seems pointless without you
