about
I wrote this song when I realized I was remembering more of my dreams when I woke up in the morning. This got me thinking about friends that I have lost track of and life plans that have not been realized.

Words & Music by Brent L. Godfrey © 2010
Do you remember your dreams
Or are they gone when you open your eyes
Wiped blank like a clear blue sky
Try to recall only fragments remain
Are your dreams real or lies
No one is in control. Pinch yourself are you sleeping
Tell yourself nothings real. Only a moment fleeting
Do you remember old friends.
Over the years have you lost track of them.
Drifted away like a smoky haze.
Just memories of happier days.
Are your friends real or lies
Chorus
Do you remember your plans.
Put on hold took a safer path.
One day you’ll have more money and time.
If you only manage to survive
Were your plans real or lies
Instrumental Chorus
Repeat Verse 1
Chorus
Do you remember your dreams
