5a/ Distant Dreams - (Matthars/ McKella​/​Thomas​/​Sampson) - Live at Blind Cat Festival 2016

from 20th ANNIVERSARY 1997 ~ 2017 LIVE CD by Paradise 9

/

  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    This album celebrates 20 years of playing their fusion of psychedelic space rock and proto-punk, with flourishes of folk, americana, prog, dub, ambient and alt- rock at gigs and festivals around the UK. The album is a collection from those early days when the band emerged from playing at various West London singer/songwriter nights such as The Acoustic Revolution, The Troubadour and The 12 Bar Club up to last year’s Kozfest and Blind Cat festivals.

    The CD also comes with a band family tree pull out poster that details the changes in the band over the years. The CD and poster artwork have been designed by Paul ‘Woodbine’ Woodwright, who has also incorporated the artwork from the late great album cover artist, Mark Reiser.

lyrics

Distant Dreams

1/

And as you sit and wonder how
As you see this – here and now
You wonder how we’ll all get through
& In these days - of distant dreams
So far away now- that it seems
A place where we all want to stay

Chorus:

We carry dreams that must get through
Of a better place – for me and you
A place where children want to play
A place that’s better than today

Each and everyone of us
Is this the time - that we must suss
And try to work out what it means
We are the children – of the sun
Now is the time that we should learn
A way to re-connect our dreams

Chorus:

We carry dreams that must get through
Of a better place – for me and you
A place where children want to play
A place that’s better than today

2/

We carry dreams that must get through
Of a better place – for me and you
A place where children want to play
A place that’s better than today
We carry dreams that must get through
Of a better place – for me and you
A place where children want to play
A place that’s better than today
