“OR, if you want to keep bacpac (and everyone else) from the vicinity of said quote...a little Fiona!

"I've got my feet on the ground, and I don't go to sleep to dream
You've got your head in the clouds, and you're not at all what you seem
This mind, this body, and this voice cannot be stifled by your deviant ways
So don't forget what I told you, don't come around, I've got my own hell to raise"”

“Lyra, I absolutely love that song. I belt out a little Fiona everytime I'm feeling pissed off and I always feel better (and sexier, hehehe)! That is a bit long for a head board though.”

“What human beings think of as reality is really an illusion, a Maya. A dream. Or a nightmare. You reach salvation when you can extinguish that illusion and become one with the cosmic soul. So if the cosmic soul sends out little hints through dreams or through the unconscious then art is my satellite dish for hearing the signals, and quite often my life imitates art.
- Bharati Mukherjee”

“Dream Weaver
Gary Wright

I've just closed my eyes again
Climbed aboard the dream weaver train
Driver take away my worries of today
And leave tomorrow behind

(chorus
Ooh dream weaver
I believe you can get me through the night
Ooh dream weaver
I believe we can reach the morning light
Fly me high through the starry skies
Maybe to an astral plane
Cross the highways of fantasy
Help me to forget today's pain

(chorus again

Though the dawn may be coming soon
There still may be some time
Fly me away to the bright side of the moon
And meet me on the other side”

“Well, there's tons of Folk lyrics containing the word "sleep" or the word "dream"?”

“VEGEMATIC
(Steve Goodman, Mike Smith, Shel Silverstein)
(Big Ears Music, Red Pajamas Music, Pierce Arrow Music, Evil Eye Music)

Fell asleep last night with the TV on,
Oh, what a dream I had.
Dreamed I went and answered ev'ry single
One of those late night mail order ads.
Then four to six weeks later,
Much to my surprise,
The mailman came to my front door
And I couldn't believe my eyes.

He brought the Vegematic
And the Pocket Fisherman, too,
Illuminated, illustrated History of Life
And Box Car Willie with a ginsu knife,
A bamboo steamer and a garden weasel, too,
And a tie dyed day-glow souvenir shirt
From Six Flags Over Burbank.

(and That's Not All...)”

“so, newgirl, did you decide??”
