Story behind the song
Daubert played a new song just with piano for a friend, Ron Signorelli, who said it sounded like a Lennon style song. So, Daubert asked Ron to do everything in the style and sound of Lennon and Beatles, since he had already been doing Beatles covers in his home studio that sounded very close. Ron wrote the lyrics and played all the parts except the piano and harpsichord, all in a day. The original recording and other lyrics made it a 6 minute song, (and ended just a second before the digital tape ran out!). This is a 4 minute version.
Lyrics
"Hold On To Your Dreams" © 1998 Daubert & Holcombe Music Publishing, ASCAP Written by Ron Signorelli and John Daubert 1st Verse: You dance around me like a moth to a flame You're feeling older and your steps aren't the same The dreams that carried you, you laid on a shelf You look for answers, you keep blaming yourself Chorus: You had the wind like a pouring rain But your life's just beginning you got plenty to gain Walking on water ain't as hard as it seems You got to hold on to your dreams 2nd Verse: And now your falling but you ain't got a net Your best is over and you live with regrets But I see through you and you haven't peaked yet Your pen ain't drying but your pages aren't wet Chorus: You were the wind, and you Can be again, because Things aren't and always what they seem Walking on water ain't as hard as it seems You got to hold on to your dreams Bridge: You can get old before you time If you don't keep a younger mind That ain't the way life ought to be Guitar Lead Bridge: You can be old and turning gray But there are still new songs to play You still got vital things to say Ending Chorus: You were the wind, and you Can be again, but you Got to hold to your dreams Life doesn't always fit so tight at the seems That ain't the way life should be You were the sun you shined so Right through the day You got to hold on to your dreams You're like a lion in a jungle of pain You got to hold on to your dreams
