I’ve always had a fondness for lullabies… The idea that a human being would sing so tenderly to a child to soothe them into sleep has always touched me.
Here is a lullaby where I wrote the music in 1997 but didn’t feel the right lyrics arrive til 2003! (this recording was produced by Zufo in 2003)
The Dream
by Little Woo
I had a dream last night
I rediscovered paradise
Life was good, the mind at peace
The air was sweet, the earth was warm
How real it seemed
Forgive me
I’ve been asleep
Now I awake
We walked together in the leaves
Weaving through the moonlit trees
Love is here, the world can rest
A wondrous sight, your eyes are filled
With heaven’s light
Forgive me
I’ve been asleep
Now I awake
Eternity has come and gone
The other dream – how real it seemed
… the other dream
