Hey MBR gang!

About a month ago I had a dream of a girl that I "dated" while I was in high school. Was a pretty vivid dream. I realized the dream wasn't about her as much as the feeling of the time and crazy and wild I was. This dream cam e from nowhere.

Last November I heard she passed away in 2003 from cancer. The last time I saw her was before I left for the Army about 20 years ago.

So I put pen to paper and started writing. I just pick a random chord progression using Saijinn's ond OHR's advice and tried to match the syllables. When I was done with the song I didn't like it. Today I put it to music. And I tried to sing. The vocals are aweful. I'm in a place where I can't really let it out and sing, living with my parents in a small house I use the Bathroom as my recording studio to sing LMAO ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

So anyway, listen to the words if you can tolerate my whaling. OHR if you're up for it, I will keep the raw files and send you the lyrics and file, would be cool to hear you sing.

So hear goes, please be kind lol

Here is the lyrics if you can't understand me lol

Intro
What's it been – twenty years
Since we've seen each other last?
Can't complain
How bout' you?
You look great
The years have given you their best

Take care –
Hope to see you soon
You said good bye
Was nice to see you too

He we are
Meeting once again
Is the just
By chance?
You still bite your lip
When you give that sweet grin

You gave me you number
Said to call you soon
That's great can't wait
To talk to you

All those crazy things
We did in our youth
Back in the
Summer of 83'
I can still see the sun
Glisten of you hair

Innocents gone
Time for something new
Woke up and realized
I was only dreaming of you

Was sorry to hear
The news last year
They said its been awhile
Since you passed
I'm glad you remebered me
In my dreams last night

Yes it was nice
To see you too
So nice to get
To talk to you

Real nice song Lestg. Good lyrics and a nice melody.
It was nice of you to explain the meaning. It's hard sometimes to let others in to your "dreams" for a minute.

Good work.
