Don't Dream It's Over

Journal Entry: Mon May 18, 2009, 11:19 AM

Crowded House

There is freedom within, there is freedom without
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
There's a battle ahead, many battles are lost
But you'll never see the end of the road
While you're traveling with me

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win

Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof
In the paper today tales of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the T.V. page

Now I'm walking again to the beat of a drum
And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart
Only shadows ahead barely clearing the roof
Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
Don't ever let them win

One of my alltime favorite songs, that-- I have yet to chase down everything the Finn Brothers have done, but I've got all the Split Enz and Crowded House stuff, as well as MOST of Neil's solo albums...

Love the song.

I love this piece as well, and "Fall at your feet" is a song I can't listen without having goosebumps...

It's such a beautiful one!

And very catchy - it's still playing in my head.

There's no reason to fight it, right?

Yeah that's great, too... Crowded House put out a new album in 2007 that didn't drop any of the old brilliance; it was a most reassuring return, even with (and inspired by) the tragic loss of their drummer...
