Dreamtime 03:55
lyrics
buy track
DREAMTIME All the powers come among us Into Dreamtime we will go Help us find the One Creator Further than the winds can blow. Spirits of the desert birds now Guide us through the twilight sky Help us seek the mysteries Far beyond the highest high. Brothers who have gone beyond here Sisters of the Bright White Light Mind and Body, Heart and Will Combine to overcome the night. Then return us to our homeland From the Dreamtime we return Bringing with us all the lessons We have been allowed to learn.

Oversoul Of Love 04:21
lyrics
buy track
OVERSOUL OF LOVE First we separated from the Oversoul of Love And floated in the ethers underneath and up above Until we started forming into something that we Dreamed And lived out many lifetimes where we learned to use it seems The arts of cogitation and the science of desire Which caused reverse sensations in the Light which comes from fire And now we find ourselves quite weak, and fragmented so far That getting back to where we were will tell us where we are.

Dreaming Right 03:44
lyrics

DREAMING RIGHT If you get the Dreaming right, it will take you all through the night. And when you chose to go explore, how the future circles to before. And when you reach decision time, time to regain your mind, Reclaim your place in time and space, the whole problem define. We'll probably see this whole damn scene again Some always come back for their fix of pain. If you get the Dreaming right, it will take you all through the night. And when you chose to go explore, how the future circles to before. And when you reach decision time, time to regain your mind, Reclaim your place in time and space, the whole problem define. We'll probably see this whole damn scene again Some always come back for their fix of pain. And when you reach decision time, time to regain your mind, Reclaim your place in time and space, the whole problem define. We'll probably see this whole damn scene again Some always come back for their fix of pain.

Dreambodies 04:35
lyrics

DREAMBODIES Dreambodies stay at home, mind their business, P’s, and Q’s, But when they loosen and start to roam, circumstances win or lose When other Dreambodies influence you, When other Dreambodies influence you. In the sleep state that has come, the everyday you sinks and goes Subtracts the Dream you from the sum, The curtains of unknowing unclose, When other Dreambodies influence you, When other Dreambodies influence you. Dreambodies stay at home, mind their business, P’s, and Q’s, But when they loosen and start to roam, circumstances win or lose When other Dreambodies influence you, When other Dreambodies influence you. You are now at the threshold, you are now at the threshold You are now at the threshold, you are now at the threshold You are now at the threshold, you are now at the threshold You are now at the threshold Dreambodies, Dreambodies, Dreambodies, Dreambodies,

Almost Blind 03:04
lyrics
buy track
ALMOST BLIND On the brightest day, in the darkest night Cannot find your way, cannot see the Light 'cause you’re running almost blind And you’re leaving your past behind. What you need to feel, you can’t seem to move When you try to kneel, you can’t see the truth 'cause you’re running almost blind And you’re leaving your past behind.

Fly High 03:44
lyrics

FLY HIGH If I ever get out of the bed I'm gonna fly high A good time Saturday night I won't let go by I need a Will that's good and strong To guide me, pull me along I need a Heart to point out Love And a Mind to float above And a Mind to float above. When this Body is mended soon, I'm gonna fly high I'll just be a blur as I go by I need a Will that's good and strong To guide me, pull me along I need a Heart to point out Love And a Mind to float above And a Mind to float above. If I ever get out of the bed I'm gonna fly high A good time Saturday night I won't let go by I need a Will that's good and strong To guide me, pull me along I need a Heart to point out Love And a Mind to float above And a Mind to float above.

Solutions That Heal 03:16
lyrics
buy track
SOLUTIONS THAT HEAL The way I see reality, is it dumb, is it wise, Am I crazy or was I hypnotized? I’m no stranger to the pain But must we live it again and again and again? When I see what to do, find solutions which The complexity of it all makes me feel I’m no stranger to the pain But must we live it again and again and again? The way I see reality, is it dumb, is it wise, Am I crazy or was I hypnotized? I’m no stranger to the pain But must we live it again and again and again? I’m no stranger to the pain But must we live it again and again and again?

Don't Slow Down 05:16
lyrics
buy track
DON'T SLOW DOWN Don't slow down and start your hiding Things are not as they appear If you give up prematurely it's a victory for fear We're all in this together, I wish you well We got a taste of paradise and we made hell. If you've reached the end of your rope Have no way to carry on If you've seen the end of your hope You'll never see you battles won We're all in this together, I wish you well We got a taste of paradise and we made hell. I dive deep down to the bottom of the feelings pool Searching for a man who sank there like a fool I don't know why I dive there, but I do Something seems to guide me, pull me through I can come back from the Darkness and show you. You can't go past your old reality Not until you get your self completely free Then you'll see the strong things that you've done Then you'll leave the wrong things, have some fun You can float free in that great big Cosmic Sea. Don't slow down and start your hiding Things are not as they appear If you give up prematurely It's a victory for fear We're all in this together, I wish you well We got a taste of paradise, a taste of paradise, We got a taste of paradise and we made hell. We got a taste of paradise, a taste of paradise, We got a taste of paradise and we made hell.

This Song 05:16
lyrics

THIS SONG See that negativity, looking for a home? Go and keep away from me Back where you belong. And if it seems it’s taking too long Then I offer this song. Makes you feel and makes you think Helps you get along It’s just words and it’s just ink And music moving on and on And if it seems it’s taking too long Then I offer this song. See that negativity, looking for a home? Go and keep away from me Back where you belong. And if it seems it’s taking too long Then I offer this song. And if it seems it’s taking too long Then I offer this song.

One Summer Night 02:06

ONE SUMMER NIGHT One summer night you said you fell in love You thought you had manifested Heaven above But soon you learned the stages of relationships And with each stage your Heart tenderly aged. The ecstasy turned from lust to fear, so soon Your life started feeling like an empty room And soon you learned the stages of relationships And with each stage your Heart tenderly aged. One summer night you said you fell in love You thought you had manifested Heaven above But soon you learned the stages of relationships And with each stage your Heart tenderly aged. And with each stage your Heart tenderly aged And with each stage your Heart tenderly aged.

VELVET ROOM l was sitting on the east side of a velvet room Making up a song in my head. If I wasn't doing that I don't know what I'd do I guess I'd go to bed. Songs get made for singing downtown If you ain't gonna sing 'em you better put 'em down. I said, songs get made for singing downtown If you ain't gonna sing 'em, then you better put 'em down. Goodie, goodie gumdrops, I'm jumping all around I'm beginning to want to wake this town. Are you rocking to the beat, hopping with your feet, or Totally missing all that sound? Songs get made for singing downtown If you ain't gonna sing 'em you better put 'em down. Songs get made for singing downtown If you ain't gonna sing 'em, then you better put 'em down. l was sitting on the east side of a velvet room Making up a song in my head.

Live A Little 03:36
lyrics
buy track
LIVE A LITTLE Do you ever think about anything new. Or did I hear you say you're too tired to Live a little life, grab it while you can Just reach out, it will take you by the hand. And when you think about yourself, Let the subject be you That's when there's hope for the Light to penetrate through. Peeking in the mirror of your cracked and broken mind Only causes terror at the garbage that you find If you can escape it, alone you can go free Live a little life and become what you can be. And when you think about yourself, Let the subject be you That's when there's hope for the Light to penetrate through. In the pale moonlight one night. near a garden wall You may see yourself take flight, then you start to stall Everything that you could be, you've already been And what comes then? If you can't be kind to yourself, Then perhaps, maybe, No one else will do that, too, Then where will we be, where will we be?

Dusty Graveyard 02:48

DUSTY GRAVEYARD In a dusty graveyard in a long forgotten town Lying several feet beneath the hard-packed Texas ground Lie the bones of my ancestors scattered through the times Of yesterday of, of yesterday, of yesterday, of yesterday. If I seek them out now it cannot be on this plane Of course they can help me, but they cannot explain How to get from here to there, And the key that ties it all To yesterday, to yesterday, to yesterday, to yesterday. In a dusty graveyard in a long forgotten town Lying several feet beneath the hard-packed Texas ground Lie the bones of my ancestors scattered through the times Of yesterday of, of yesterday, of yesterday, of yesterday Of yesterday of, of yesterday, of yesterday, of yesterday.

Emptiness 03:14
lyrics

EMPTINESS Look into the East and see the fireball in the sky Rising from the mountains looking bright and heading high Bringing us the energy to begin another time, Ending the long darkness of our minds, Ending the long darkness of our minds. Can you feel the emptiness as it’s piloted away, Feel the joy of knowing that you’ve lived to see this day? If it is my last one let me use it as I will, Knowing that tomorrow you all will Look into the East and see the fireball in the sky, Rising from the mountains looking bright and heading high, Bringing us the energy to begin another time, Ending the long darkness of our minds, Ending the long darkness of our minds. Ending the long darkness of our minds, Ending the long darkness of our minds.

about

All songs are free, but donations are appreciated.

Click on the song to read about it's story and the lyrics button to read that song's lyrics.

This is the second album of songs from the music/fiction work SUN PIPES FOR THE DREAMERS, the story of Ramon who, while within a coma caused by a motorcycle accident, has remarkable Dreams that he remembers in detail when he awakes.

Ramon’s Dreams don’t bring him clear messages. Instead, they bring him hazy suggestions of long forgotten past realities, or else cause him to literally experience the most deep and sometimes embarrassing depths of total strangers’ lives. A few of these strangers Ramon gets to know well, even though they do not know that he repeatedly enters their consciousness. But wherever his Dreams take him, if Ramon thinks about his Dreams, analyzes, and "feels" about them, new perspectives regarding his own human existence come to him. Slowly his Dreams guide him to encounter what Ramon comes to call the “bigger existences” of Creation. By involuntarily Dream traveling, then reflecting about the Dream, then finding himself Dream traveling again, over and over and over, Ramon struggles to understand, to grow, to find healing balances.

While my more polished songs usually gravitate to II Cosmic or Howling Wannabes albums, the Deep Dude albums often provide homes for simpler songs, songs that are topical, or ones that are somehow different than usual for me..
