The Dream - Merle Haggard

Last last I dreamed that you and I were in awful storm

With no place to go or shelter anywhere

And it took a while to realize the reason for the dream

Now the meaning of it all is coming clear.

The storm was on the trouble we’ve been having

No shelter was the answer we can’t find

And the screaming of the raging wind that chilled me to the bone

Must have been heavy on my mind.

And when today you called to tell me it was over

Lord I knelt when the phone began to ring

Yeah it took a while to understand the reason of it all

But now I know the meaning of the dream.

The storm was on the trouble we’ve been having

No shelter was the answer we can’t find

And the screaming of the howling wind that chilled me to the bone

Must have been heavy on my mind…
