LYRIC
In the dreams I dream about you 
We’ve always time to spare 
And it seems like you’re about to
Tell me that you care

It’s the loneliest of feelings
To wake in the cold dawn
And the dream is gone
The dream is gone

Ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah
When the morning arrives
With its first sunbeam
I go where the day takes me
But at night I can dream

In the dreams I dream there’s times when
Rain falls down in sheets
I can’t find a door to step in
As I walk the empty streets

Then you’re there to offer shelter
As you hold a raincoat wide
And I fold inside 
I fold inside 
Your raincoat wide

Ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah
I lay down my head
And my heart pumps away
My body needs rest 
But my brain wants to play
It’s the world of the past
Sent out in a stream
I may be an old man 
But I can still dream
I can still dream
The dreams I dream

The Dreams I Dream

'just leave me alone'

Scotty: lyrics, vocals 

Well I'm sittin' on my couch, contemplating life,
thinkin' if it's best if I just grab that fucking knife
and slit my fucking wrists. It's so hard now to resist
when all that does exist has led us all to this
fuckin' depressing state of man...err...woman...err...whatever you wanna be called.
Just leave me alone.
Leave me alone.
Alone. 

Well I'm standin' in my kitchen now,
feelin' agitated
as some useless motherfuckers need to feel congratulated.
I don't know what's goin' on anymore.
It's fuckin' depressing, the state of man...err...woman...err...whatever you wanna be called.
Just leave me alone.
Leave me alone.
Alone.

Cast of characters: 

Surfers Like Us– @user-411502040 –Artur–composition, arrangement, and foundational rhythm guitar

TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–guitar, sitar, mix, mastering, and production

J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – organ, electric piano, and synth

K2 and the Three [and the Four]-- @k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums and percussion

Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez–Guitar 

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –four string fretless bass 

 This song is the brainchild of Artur, who composed it on his guitar perfectly for collaboration, and presented it to us with his vision for the entire sound. Ken went first, of course, adding his signature rocking beat to the song. Josh went next, as soon as Ken had laid down the drums, adding his four string fretless bass sound to fill out the rhythm section. 
  Tez came along soon after, adding some foundational ornamentation with his guitar. JJ jumped in right after Tez, and laid in the majestic organ, riffing electric piano, and subtle synth you hear throughout. Finally, Stephen laid his guitar in there, too, which can be heard as a fiery melodic line running throughout. At Artur's suggestion, he also added some amazing, trippy sitar in a couple of spots, too.
  Once all the tracks were laid down, Stephen came through with his always skillful mix. This makes almost an album worth of material that The Eclectic Collective has created from Artur's ideas. We're always excited when he drops a new one in our laps. He wrote this on a sweet rainy day in the Polish summer. 
  We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it. 
  
  We all appreciate your support, and encourage you to share this song if you've read the whole way down to the bottom here

Days in the sun
Wonders of love

What we gave up
Can’t believe us
How could we not find a way forward?

Stars off course
A black hole in my heart
Pulls me 
Always with remorse

I feel the force
I fall apart
When I think of what we could have been

Jupiter spins
With 95 moons when 
Venus has not one
For lovers like us

Sunsets fading
I keep thinking
We could have made it
That could have been us
Could have been us

Love Love Love
Is such a fleeting light
Love Love Love
Is it worth the fight tonight

Tonight
I’m waiting all night

And I’m still willing to try
Is there a way for us to save us

I feel a pull
I feel our hearts
Gravitating

Is there a way for us to save us
a way to save us



Stars still off course
Rip open my heart
Fools pulled apart 
Once more

Love and divorce
The fight’s no more
And all I think 
What could have been 
Us

Jupiter spins
Even worlds end
Venus cools when
Lovers give up

Sunsets fading
I keep thinking
We could have made it
That could have been us.

Wild Christopher & Unguided Epress-We could have been

The Pièces froides are two sets of piano pieces composed in March 1897 by Erik Satie. Unpublished until 1912 when Ravel played them publicly, they marked Satie's break from the mystical-religious music of his Rosicrucian and Gymnopodies period (1891–95), and were a harbinger of his humoristic piano suites of the 1910s. 

The title Pièces froides, translated as Cold Rooms or Cold Cuts, is a punning allusion to the dire poverty Satie experienced during his last years living in Montmartre. In July 1896, he had been forced to move into an unheated ground floor closet (he called it a "cupboard”. The space was so small that Satie's camp bed all but blocked the door shut, and on frigid nights he kept warm by sleeping fully dressed with the rest of his clothing piled on top of him.

This the second of the two cold pieces: Danses de travers (Crooked Dances)
1. En y regardant à deux fois (Give it a good look)
2. Passer (Go on)
3. Encore (Again)

Here i've arranged the original solo piano for 2 classical guitars, 12-string, celeste, woodwinds & strings.
