All In A Dream
Every time I pass the old family home in Lalor Park it stirs so many memories, both good and bad. I always wonder how life would have panned out had we not left the safety of the old home town. How much has changed….the people…the places…the culture. You feel helpless sometimes even though you could have done nothing to change it.

Went by my school just the other day
The windows I once learned through
Have been broken
As I wondered the corridors
I dreamt of all the ghosts
I may have woken
People and places, the changing faces
Some better left unseen
A town that I don’t seem to know
As I ask myself………
Was it at all in a dream?
Went down my street just the other day
The wind that blew so cruel
Has now blown colder
I took a walk down to the park
Where I used to play,
Before my world grew older
Closed my eyes and I took a breath
Dreamt of long ago
The lights that shined so Bright are gone,
As I ask myself
Was it all in a dream?
Went by my house just the other day
While the paint has faded,
Nothing else seems changed
And the mud on the walls,
Like the blood on my hands,
Maybe it will wash out in the rain
Friends who should be lovers now
Have long since gone away
All the faces in the crowd are strangers now
As I ask myself,
Was it all in a dream?
