Catalina's Milky Way Dreams
(c) Re- Written 2024 - By The Depressed Poet, Doc Dalton
Shooting Stars and fast moving CarsRumble through the roads of my mindTick-e-ty Tock, the old sounds of the clockSay's it's almost a quarter past nine
The moons surely rising, the stars are a glidingAnd Mr. Sandman is ready to roamHurry off to bed and put your pillow under your headHe might just be visiting you tonight at homeDrifting off to sleep is such a wonderful featAdventures you'll enjoy on your ownMaking new friends on a journey to no endA secrete life that is yours all aloneDon't be afraid of those gobble lee goo'sOr those pirates drifting to sea on their boatsThere's no need to worry there just in your dreamsLike rainbow clouds and cotton candy floatsOh that sky's full of colors of make believe wondersExciting every step of the wayCan't you let me stay for just a little bit longerPlease, don't take my Dreams a wayTo see this through a child's eyesOn the path to where stars brightly beamThrough a different world of twist and twirlsWon't you come to my Milky Way DreamsWe could have so much funUnder an ice cream sun and laugh our time awaySing some M & M songs the whole day longUntil we awake to brand new day
Pluto say's hey kiddo don't get out of bedAs Snakel Puss laughs and says, ah it's OKKKKKKKKPopeye yell's, were gone in a minute after I eat me spinachPoo say's all aboard my Banana Split SleighOh that Sky's full of colors of make believe wondersExciting every step of the wayCan't you let me stay for just a little bit longerWorry not Catalina, we won't take your Dreams a way
To see this through a child's eyesOn the path to where stars brightly beamThrough a different world of twist and twirlsWon't you come to my Milky Way Dreams
Catalina say's, please come join me, on my Milky Way Dreams




Can anyone help me, please, isn't someone there
Lord, can't you walk by my side, hear my desperate prayer
Another night of sadness that lies under my broken moon
Searching for hope, for light to break through this gloom

The stars seem so distant, fading out of my reach
Yet here I am standing, my heart longing to breach
Through the darkness I wander, feeling lost in the night
Under my broken moon, where dreams fade from sight

Under my broken moon, the shadows play their game
In the quiet of the night, they whisper my name
Once I had the love, now it's just a distant tune
As I walk through life under my broken moon

Time moves on gently, but my heart's filled with doubt
I hear echoes of laughter that I've tried to live without
Memories flood my mind, like the rivers that won't dry
Oh Lord, I need a reason, show me how to fly

The night stretches longer, the stars all seem to hide
I'm reaching for redemption, but I'm lost deep inside
I search every corner of this lonely old street
Under my broken moon, it's hard to find my feet

Under my broken moon, the shadows play their game
In the quiet of the night, they whisper my name
Once I had the love, now it's just a distant tune
As I walk through life under my broken moon

In the stillness of the night, I pray for peace to find
To mend my weary soul, oh Lord, be gentle and kind
As I walk alone with the weight of my past
Under my broken moon, I hope I'll find love at last

But hope isn't lost, it's just buried deep
In the silence of sorrow, sweet dreams often sleep
I can almost hear whispers, of a love that still waits
With open arms and kindness that my heart celebrates

The dawn will break softly, the darkness will flee
And under my broken moon, I'll find love, I believe

Under my broken moon, the shadows play their game
In the quiet of the night, they whisper my name
Once I had the love, now it's just a distant tune
As I walk through life under my broken moon

So here I am praying, while the world spins around
Each step that I'm taking is the start of a sound
I'll forgive my past troubles, and let my sorrow fly
Under my broken moon, I'll learn again to fly
