‘Feather of a Dream’
Wheels of Autum
High as a kite
and I don’t think I’ve felt this way before
long crazy night
feels like everything is stuck togeather
since when are there two moons up in the sky?
[chorus]
and my mind keeps on barely learning about all there is to know
as the world keeps on twirling, whirling..
along a path that’s headed straight into the sun
there’s more than one
the wheel has spun
Ali Baba and the golden snake of wonder
in a basket by his side, the ruler of Islam
Ali Baba and a sitar made of thunder
on a carpet high up in the clouds
Feather of a dream
feather of a dream
feather of a dream, of a dream
[return to verse]
Might as well fly
Feels like i’m floating but I’m sitting down
like a pillow wrapped up in a wall of sound
No need to try
trying’s always being done and if you want too long you’ll never get to run
[chorus]
[jam]
[chorus]
[10 minutes of jam]
A feather of a dream
dreams or real or so it seams
love is but a mystery like a feather of a dream (repeats 3X)
Seriously, if you like Grateful Dead, you should check out those tracks. I realized after listening to Dead and Phish that
a: Phish isn’t really as much like the Dead as I thought
b: These tracks are much more like Grateful Dead than Phish – in fact, I swear Headlights’s jam session sounds exactly like a Dead jam session. (Although, as Kayti points out, the Dead were first, which makes them special)
