Story Behind The Song

On tour with my old band in BC Canada. In and out of sleep in the van having vivid dreams. I would jot them down between naps.

Song Description

A lot of amazing imagery I was taking in while touring across Canada that I tried to put to music.

Lyrics

sand man come and find me tonight
put me down for the next 3 days
give me dreams that make sense and maybe when I wake up I'll have some perspective on this
Maybe when I wake this world will be different

I wanna fly but my wings won't work there's dew drops on my feathers
I wanna fly but my wings won't work sunshine you make it better

I dream of a messenger who says I'll meet St. Mary
I dream of an avalanche
I dream that I'm burried at the base of a mountian where my soul will climb up until I break the treeline
Then I'll look down from above and say

I wanna fly but my wings won't work there's dew drops on my feathers
I wanna fly but my wings won't work sunshine you make it better

I'll be gone before you notice
swallowed under the snow
I'll be gone before you notice
it's too late, let me go

I wanna fly but my wings won't work there's dew drops on my feathers
I wanna fly but my wings won't work sunshine you make it better
