We discovered John Fullbright back yonder, and today he tore us up.  Check out his song for the ages and all ages, Daydreamer, as performed on a Sleepover Show.  And please, don’t look down when you pray.  Daydreamer can be found on Fullbright’s outstanding album From the Ground Up.   The song’s lyrics follow at bottom. Fullbright is out on tour now and headed to Europe in September.  All tour dates can be found HERE.

Daydreamer:

Daydreamer, lost in dreams
Sewn all together with the magic seams
Daydreamer, lost in a crowd all alone
Daydreamer, thinks he can fly
Sees white pictures in a big blue sky
Daydreamer, dreaming of a world all his own.

Young men spend a lot of time looking down at the ground
Looking down when they pray
Looking down everyday
Dreamers know that the finer things wait up in the air
But young men are proud
Sometimes dreaming aint allowed

Dream me a better world and I’ll find a better way
Dream me a bigger sky and I’ll blow the rain away
I’m a young man today
Thats got nothing left to say about tomorrow.

Young men spend a lot of time watching old men make mistakes
But when the young man falls
Well then the old heart breaks
Theres a fire burning deep inside and its as mad as its mean
Its hungry as its lean
And its as fleeting as a dream

Dream me a better world and I’ll find a better way
Dream me a bigger sky and I’ll blow the rain away
I’m a young man today
Thats got nothing left to say about tomorrow.
