Happy Birthday Daddy.

Crowded House has become one of my favorite bands. I heard "don't dream it's over" before, but i fell in love with it while watching "Adventure Land" which was kinda crappy, but the soundtrack was wonderful.
Anyway...it's my Dad's birthday. I forgot. But was reminded. It's weird because i really don't think of him as much as i used to. And the crying doesn't hurt as much.
But there's still tears.

Anyway, this song makes me think about him.

"Don't Dream It's Over."


There is freedom within, there is freedom without
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
Theres a battle ahead, many battles are lost
But you'll never see the end of the road
While youre travelling with me

Hey now, hey now
Dont dream its over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they wont win

Now Im towing my car, theres a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion but theres no proof
In the paper today tales of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the t.v. page

Hey now, hey now
Dont dream its over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they wont win

Now Im walking again to the beat of a drum
And Im counting the steps to the door of your heart
Only shadows ahead barely clearing the roof
Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief

Hey now, hey now
Dont dream its over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
Dont ever let them win
