#9 DREAM
So long ago... was it in a dream, was it just a dream?
I know, yes I know
It seemed so very real, it seemed so real to me
Took a walk down the street
Thru the heat whispered trees
I thought I could hear (hear, hear, hear)
Somebody call out my name as it started to rain
Two spirits dancing so strange
Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé
Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé
Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé
Dream, dream away
Magic in the air, was magic in the air?
I believe, yes I believe
More I cannot say, what more can I say?
On a river of sound
Thru the mirror go round, round
I thought I could feel (feel, feel, feel)
Music touching my soul, something warm, sudden cold
The spirit dance was unfolding
Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé
Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé
Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé

Funfact: In the minute 1:35, whoever whispers John's name is his assistant,May Pang. The two had a brief 18-month relationship, which John affectionately called "the lost weekend". John was already interested in May Pang, but it all happened when his wife Yoko Ono asked May to relate more closely to her boss when he went to Los Angeles. May was surprised, but over the months, May Pang and John Lennon became lovers and maintained that relationship until the late 1970s

Had a dream about John Lennon. He was at my house hiding from all the fans. He was young. He stayed for several days. Seems we were really good friends. He talked my ear off in the dream, wish I could remember what he said. Then he had to get back to work. I remember feeling such a deep love for him and a deep love coming from him. I love this man. He touched my soul. Two spirits dancing so strange. Was it in a dream? Was it just a dream? I know, yes I know It seemed so very real Seemed so real to me. It was real! Thanks for the visit John, you’re still very much alive!!!

[@hw343434]

I had a connection like that with John’s spirit when I was meditating in the cave #9 where he used to meditate in the ashram in India! After meditating, I picked up my guitar, and saw the roof of the cave had a painting with a line from Yoko to John that said: “when you look up at the sky and see a cloud think of me.” I started a song with that opening line and suddenly it was him playing and writing a song, the melody sounded too much like John. So much so I couldn’t even use the song for myself because I felt it was John’s spirit pouring through me

Of all John's fine songs, this is the one that always touches me the most.

Sad, peaceful, whimsical, nostalgic, wise and knowing, all at once, it's just beautiful.

Yes. She calls out John but also says: Hare Krishna, George. I think it was an apology. George absolutely adored John, he would do anything for him but John never returned the affection with the same intensity. At some point of the Lost Weekend they had a fight (the one where George asks to see John's eyes) and didn't speak again for years. I suppose the message John's way of reaching out and telling George he was on his mind. As for the rest of the song, I think it was about his time as a Beatle and of course, Paul.
