bert jansch – just a dream lyrics
a+walkin’ along on a summer day
when i met a man come the other way
i said, ”how do you do, my friend?
how do you do today?”
he looked so pale, his face was drawn
he said “my friend, i wish i’d never been born
i’m a+lookin’ for my long+lost soul
i had it only yesterday
now there was a time when i could build a ship
i’d build it proud and strong
on the seven seas it would sail along
and now it’s only just a dream”
i met a woman on the same highway
i looked in her eye but she turned away
i said, “how do you do, my friend?
how do you do today?”
she said, “in this land there’s a place for me
a paradise and the water comes free
or is it just a crazy dream
that’s floatin ’round inside my head?
now there was a time we would stand and fight
instead of turnin’
let our voices sing out in harmony
and now it’s only just a dream”
hand in hand came a boy and a girl
he whistled a tune, she sang a song
i said, “how do you do, my friends?
how do you do today?”
“now we don’t know what we should learn
what books to keep, what books to burn
what a funny old world this is!
keeps changing from day to day
now there was a time when it was right and wrong
it was black and white
it was easier to get along
now it’s only just a dream”
