about

Joe's wife, Sara, sings about her nightmares.

lyrics

Last night I dreamed a dream that had no color
The wind reached in and found me in my head
The icy tears spilled softly to my pillow
And I could see the darkness spreading there

The spirits stared, they did not even whisper
And I could tell they wanted more
And I knew then, that they were hungry
For the sweet blessings that I adore

I’m so Afraid—
Afraid that God will take it away.
I’m so afraid these blessings aren't really mine,
I’m so afraid at any moment that the sky will tumble
Yes, it's true that I'm afraid

These dreams of loss will shatter me in time
I know this life will someday fade away
And then, it won’t be mine.
And visions of all I love will disappear.
This is the dream I fear:

Tomorrow, when He wakes us
I pray He won’t forsake us,
And life will roll surely by,
Without you I’ll surely, surely die.
