A Dream Within a Dream Songtext
von Oren Lavie

The road stretches on from unknown destination
Across open streams
Through fields of carnations
It enters a city, a building
It stretches ahead
It stops at the feet
The feet of his bed

He′s aware of a small inclination
A dream in a dream
He pays no attention
Oranges hover and faces all over he knows
Is how the dream goes


Caught within a dream within a dream
A man within a man
Caught within a thought within a thought
An ocean so deep
He will drown in his sleep

Ths winds whistles lower and the windows are yielding
The telephone rings in the opposite building
A voice with a likable, unrecognizable air
It runs in the walls
It isn't quite there

He′s aware of a change in the weather
A dream in a dream
He'll think of it later
A wonderful melody line that he couldn't quite get
He couldn′t remember
He′d never forget

Caught within a dream within a dream
A man within a man
Caught within a thought within a thought
An ocean so deep
He will drown his sleep
