an occasional dream (bbc live session) - david bowie lyrics

Loading...

(the next thing the big band will be doing is a track from david’s last lp, the one called “david bowie”, and
this song is “an occasional dream”:)

[verse 1]
i recall how we lived
on the corner of a bed
and we’d speak of a swedish room
of hessian and wood
and we’d talk with our eyes
of the sweetness in our lives
and tomorrows of rich surprise
some things we could do

[chorus 1]
in our madness
we burnt one hundred days
time takes time to pass
and i still hold some ashes
to me
an occasional dream

[verse 2]
and we’d sleep, oh so close
but not really close our eyes
between the sheets of summer
bathed in blue
gently weeping nights
it was long, long ago
and i can’t touch your name
for the days of fate
were strong for you
danced you far from me

[outro chorus]
in my madness
i see your face in mine
i keep a photograph
it burns my wall with time
time
an occasional dream
of mine
an occasional dream
of mine
an occasional dream
of mine …

(and that was called an “an occasional dream” …)
