The music was initially written to different lyrics written by a friend. The lyrics were changed so the song would be 100 percent owned by the band.
lyrics
I’ve got a sleepy feelin’,
Goin’ on inside my head,
My mind is slowly drifting,
As I lie here on my bed,
Another world, I’m floating to,
As clouds, are all around me,
Until I exit from this place,
I won’t know where I’ll be,
A dreamers odyssey.
When I arrive, sometimes it’s dark,
Much too dark to see,
And other times, I fly around,
Which makes me feel so free,
This other world I’ve floated to,
Can be happy, or be sad,
A dreamer’s odyssey,
Can be good or bad,
It can be good or bad.
To dream a dream, when sound asleep,
Will put you to the test, [CHORUS]
A happy dream’s great for the soul, 2X
While nightmare’s, ruin your rest.
What thoughts lie deep inside your mind,
Determines, where you will be,
Either rested and feeling fine,
Or just scared as can be,
A dreamer’s odyssey.
I’ve got a sleepy feelin’,
Goin’ on inside my head,
My mind is slowly drifting,
As I lie here on my bed,
Another world, I’m floating to,
As clouds, are all around me,
Until I exit from this place,
I won’t know where I’ll be,
A dreamer’s odyssey.
Bouncy, jangly power pop with a slash of acidic shadow, as the very best twee always has. From Boston, they met at band camp (not Bandcamp). Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 2, 2019
