Story Behind The Song
I had a dream. Well, there were recurring themes in my dreams. They were so intense I did not want to go back to sleep. I found them interesting and then one day had the idea to describe them over an instrumental piece that was already recorded. Voila!

Song relating lurid dreams brought on by the drinking of moderate amounts of red wine. Repeated dreams about claustrophobia and cars driving into the sea, home made aeroplanes. That sort of thing.

Lyrics
Bright coloured panel vans, yellow and red - driverless into the sea.
Mountainous waves crash on the beach. Nobody's scared except me.
I'm crawling through tight tunnels with the sides pressing on my chest.
Night after night it's the same.
It's like being born, but it isn't what it seems.
The claustrophobia of red wine dreams.
Red wine dreams.
Rice paper aeroplane carries mother and child - rickety frame clad in red.
Vulnerability could be it's motto as it rustles along overhead.
I'm crawling through tight tunnels with the sides pressing on my chest.
Night after night it's the same.
It's like being born, but it isn't what it seems.
I know it's just red wine dreams.
Red wine dreams.
