Perfect Dream (A Marc Freak Collaboration) by jon lock published on 2022-02-01T01:09:22Z Got to work with Marc Freak @marcfreak on this one after he foolishly offered to, in a comment on a track of mine. I spent a bit of time in London in the late eighties. Boy George was king, the food was still mostly bland and there were a million different rules for dress depending on where you went. Funny how sometimes things can be so foreign and familiar at the same time. I have lots of thoughts but I won't bore you. Oh and the music. I knew most of the bands but it did change my perception a bit to hear them in context. Thanks so much Marc for the singing, melody, lyrics and maybe some context. ;) Lyrics: PERFECT DREAM Jumping out of the frying pan into the fire Like a drug bust with a visible wire But its worth it for the time that we spend And I pray they don't end All I crawled through has the skin busy itching And my internet is permanently glitching But I cannot bare the time we're apart Its a trial of the heart CHORUS Is this just a perfect dream that's coming true? I want to spend the whole of my brief life with you When you're standing in darkness and a glimpse of light shines through When you're lit up like a beacon And although you are freaking I'm loving this dream come true With you And the time I have left grows ever shorter I am drowning in invisible water Its a failure on my part I can't swim And the prospects look grim There's a torch that ever shines in the distance Hold my hands up - show no signs of resistance I'm a prisoner of love I don't mind in fact I'm pleased to do time CHORUS When you're standing in darkness and a glimpse of light shines through When you're lit up like a beacon And everyone's peeking I'm loving this dream come true Genre "New" Romantic Comment by Rob Terstall cool collab, guys! 2023-02-20T23:18:39Z Comment by Baking Jazz Power Nice collab guys !! :) It sounds great ! 2022-07-13T11:52:55Z Comment by Nemorivagus1 good sounding track!ππβ¨β¨π 2022-04-07T13:08:56Z Comment by Daniels & Durgy Really enjoying this catchy and dreamy retro-rocker.
