Brian Dilts: Songs

• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)
• MP3 play whole song, lo-fi (modem)

Surrealist painting on an otherwise empty wall
Tells me the rain’s gonna come, the sky’s gonna fall
Falling stars are never far away
Wish on them before they all go away

A life that waits and a life that never stops
A child that plays and an old man throwing darts
All of this is moving in a straight line
And where is my inspiration this time?

(chorus)
I’ve been looking for signs that were there all the time
For the future, but the past didn’t rhyme
So I made it fit but they all could see
I was going the wrong way down a one-way street

It took so long to realize that life moves
Moves in a straight line
The wind picked me up above the street
And I can’t remember a day when I felt so free

A wishing well that’s covered by a pane of glass
I wanted all my wishes down there to last
But they changed to wishes I didn’t recognize
And where is my inspiration this time?

(chorus)

One day I heard a hand brush across my floor
The noise grew louder as I opened the door
But just as soon as I heard it, it was gone
Like a morning dew disappearing after the dawn

(chorus)
