Hi, here’s a new song that we’ve just completed featuring a female singer MizAgata who has occasionally provided the vocals on a number of our songs.
The Dreamroad is quite a bittersweet song which we tried to write with just enough ambiguity in the verses to allow the listener (hopefully) to use their own imagination as to what is going on in the narrative.
The chorus is of course a simple metaphor for life touching upon love, redemption and the passage of time.
I hope you all enjoy it and I look forward to any comments.

I got a letter from a friend
Someone I once held dear
It’s the beginning or the end
She didn’t make it clear
I thought about it for a while
Where did it all go wrong?
The past can fade just like a smile
But never lasts too long
It’s not too late to change
Before we grow too old
Life’s never easy when you step
Upon the Dreamroad
It’s not worth crying
If we find it’s only fool’s gold
Love sometimes leaves you If you slip
Upon the Dreamroad
I’ve seen the face behind the veil
The coldness in her eyes
The story of a cruel betrayal
That nothing could disguise
I heard the sirens in the night
Howling from the cold
So many stories yet to write
Must now remain untold
It’s not too late to change
Before we grow too old
Life’s never easy when you step
Upon the Dreamroad
It’s not worth crying
If we find it’s only fool’s gold
Love sometimes leaves you If you slip
Upon the Dreamroad
It’s not too late
It’s not worth crying
