Dreams

Lets go back a good few years. I don't think many bands can really match the likes of Fleetwood Mac for simply delivering time and again.

I guess this one takes me back to what someone said to me a long time ago, "If someone is dumb enough to walk away, be smart enough to let them leave." This whole song points out that people often think things are one way and then pretty much realise that it was only like that because they were looking at it from a particular point of view.

"Dreams" points out that often you might be dreaming of something that simply isn't true. At the end of it all you'll be left with just yourself wondering what all those dreams really were.

Now there you go again
You say you want your freedom
Well who am I to keep you down
It's only right that you should play it the way that you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat, drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering
What you had, and what you lost
what you had, and what you lost

Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
They say, women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you'll know
You'll know

Now here I go again, I see the crystal vision
I keep my visions to myself
It's only me who wants to wrap around your dreams and
Have you any dreams you'd like to sell,
Dreams of Loneliness, like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering
What you had, And what you lost
What you had, oh what you lost

Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
They say, women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you'll know

Oh thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
They say, women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you'll know
You'll know
You will know
Oh oh oh you'll know


Rain... it comes and goes, be sure to clean up when it's there.
