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




It's never been said that life would be easy,
Each road we take filled with dreams that seem cheesy.
Paths sometimes wander, and the skies turn gray,
But trust in the Lord, let Him lead the way.

The journey is long, with ups and the downs,
Wandering hearts in these old dusty towns.
The struggles can tighten, like a noose around fate,
But keep pushing on, just don't hesitate.

If I only knew, why it felt so alone,
When I reached out for You, felt like You'd never shown.
These screams to heaven echo through despair,
But through it all, I know You always care.

If I only knew the truth behind the pain,
That through the darkest nights, I could dance in the rain.

Confusion wrapped tightly, with a ragged soul,
Tattered and torn, was I ever whole?
In moments of weakness, I cried out for grace,
Searching for signs, wanting to see Your face.

All the hurt felt like a heavy chain,
Couldn't see the sunshine, just the pouring rain.
But one day amidst, my doubts and my fears,
I shouted Your name, released all my tears.

If I only knew, the love You freely give,
That even in struggles, in Your strength I can live.
These words that You whispered turned my night into day,
Don't worry, my son, I'm right here to stay.

If I only knew, every heartache we face,
Leads us closer to You in Your warm embrace.
In the quiet moments, when darkness surrounds,
I reach for Your light, and the joy can be found.

Every tear that I shed, every lonely night,
Leads me back to You, passes through the light.
I learned through the struggle, every stumble and fall,
Leaning on You, Lord, You'll help carry it all.

If I only knew, that Your love would remain,
Every time I falter, You'd relieve all my pain.
With faith as my guide, I will navigate these roads,
The weight of the world, Lord, You'll help me unload.

So I'll walk this journey, hand in hand with You,
With every heartbeat, I know we'll make it through.

So I'll keep moving forward, through the highs and the lows,
With You as my anchor, I'm ready to go.
If I only knew that the best is yet to come,
Walking this journey, I'm never alone.
