Seven Dreams - Carrie Newcomer

Walking like a ghost in my own movie

Touching you then letting you go

Hand in hand we walk these halls together

Then letting you go

I dreamt I told you a dream I’d had

That once I had dreamt of you

You touched my face and you told me «Hush»

And that you already knew

There’s room enough here for women and men

Silence and letting go

Strangers here walk hand in hand

Silence and letting it go

I heard the voices of women singing

Coming on up from the lowest floors

I stood amazed for I knew the songs

And who they were written for

I stand in a circle of light

You stand in a circle of light

I dreamt I brought a book for you to see

True and forevermore

On the first page there rode a queen

Singing «True and forevermore»

Page after page were familiar faces

Walking behind in a joyous line

Heroes, saints and some so old

Their names had been lost in the fog of time

Hand in hand, we stepped on in

True and forevermore
