I had a dream about an episode of Miami Vice called "A Bullet for Crocket" where I heard an unusual song by Peter Gabriel. Recently Neflix made the series available and I saw the episode for the first time in years. The song does not exist. I dreamed it. You can check. Here are the words I remember.
Cover me beneath the
cold night,
Comfort me within the
cold light,
Blinded by pain I can
not see,
I search for your
hand to be free.
I lost my way within
my fears,
On a lonely road
paved by tears,
The light ahead will
see me through,
My only hope is finding
you.
Trial of fire
shredded resolve,
Against problems I
could not solve,
Surrounded by spears
on all sides,
Without defense or
hope I cannot hide.
Within the forest of
bad dreams,
I try to hear your
voice through screams,
Holding my heart to
what is true,
My salvation and hope
is in you.
Awaking to your sound
I see light,
Stirring to your
voice I begin to fight,
With truth in your
eyes I now can see,
The strength of truth
you found in me.
The fog of fear
departs from me,
I know the truth of
what must be,
Finding the strength
it takes to heal,
For in your heart I
know love is real.
