letra de a dream within a dream - jonathan christenson
[player 1]
edgar lingered ar f-nny’s grave
long after everyone else was gone
through the dimmest of dusks and darkest of nights
to the dreariest light of dawn
long enough for jock allan to see that young edgar
was now his only kin, his only
hope that his home could be filled with happiness
that it once had been
thus, he gave edgar the name of allan-
[jock]
an honour, my boy, that you’ve won!
[player 1]
and he made a great effort to show more affection
and fondly addressed him:
[jock]
son!
[player 1]
edgar, however, was devastated
f-nny’s death turned his world upside down
and shattered the delicate hope which had formed
that his fortunes were turning around
and no matter how hard edgar tried he just couldn’t
forget who sent f-nny away
for if jock could pit his own wife in the grave
there was no one he couldn’t betray!
and so edgar the fighter, edgar the brave
edgar the boy with a mission
grew sullen, withdrawn, all his purpose was gone
and he suddenly lost all ambition
and the terrors that troubled his sleepless nights
crept increasingly into his days
and filled his heart with fear and dread
and set his mind ablaze
for-
edgar’s true nature would not be denied
despite all his efforts to change
and so deep from within, a pull would begin
to places dark and strange
his mind, it would wander to horrible thoughts
which he desperately tried to restrain
but although these thoughts left edgar trebling with fear
his efforts were always in vain
[edgar]
there are thoughts
that will not part
that will not leave us in peace
and there are visions
dark and sinister
that never will cease
a darkened tide
of endless pride
a mystery and a dream
a dream so fraught
a wild thought
the same somnambulant theme
all that we see
all that we seem
is but a dream within a dream
[player 1]
jock allan took edgar’s brooding ways
as a sign of ingrat-tude-
and he took to unkindly berating the boy
for his lackl-ster att-tude
thus, the best of his days in the house of allan
appeared to be nearing an end
and sadly, for edgar, a tragic and terrible
future it seemed to portend!
[edgar]
there are thoughts
that will not part
that will not leave us in peace
and there are visions
dark and sinister
that never will cease
a darkened tide
of endless pride
a mystery and a dream
a dream so fraught
a wild thought
the same somnambulant theme
there are thoughts
that will not part
that will not leave us in peace
and there are visions
dark and sinister
that never will cease
a darkened tide
of endless pride
a mystery and a dream
a dream so fraught
a wild thought
the same somnambulant theme
all that we see
all that we seem
is but a dream within a dream
[player 1]
