this is rather more poetic than lyrical, though. in the same sort of style that Jim's lyrics were -

Why not put this to music, but as an exercise, make it as totally un-Doors like as you can? Should be fun........

Maybe with just a solo finger-picked guitar........

Still a very good song though!!!!]]> Guitar Noise Songwriting Club Vic Lewis VL https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-noise-songwriting-club/awake/#post-65984 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-noise-songwriting-club/awake/#post-3251 Mon, 23 Aug 2004 00:18:17 +0000
Awake

awake, my friend
hold my hand
let us walk by the sea
of our distant dreams
where the Sun is
all but bright
and the Moon's a jewel
in the crown of the night

fading stars and
yawning clouds
roll over the mountains
beneath the lit-up house
where our dreams are caged
with our empty souls
where strange games are played
and strangers tales told

where the dawn
refuses to knock
so we wait
by the lonely rock
await, for our story to begin
awake, for our time is running thin...]]> Guitar Noise Songwriting Club alterego https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-noise-songwriting-club/awake/#post-3251
