lyrics

The sad pursuit
Of what will never be
Deny the truth
Ignore reality
It could have been
It should have been
Now I lay me down to dream
Now I lay me down to dream

Rehearse the lines
Learn them all by heart
A thousand times
Never play the part
It could have been
It should have been
Now I lay me down to dream
Now I lay me down to dream
Now I lay me down.

about

Tommy Keyes Ireland

After an absence of nearly 40 years, Tommy Keyes returns with a stockpile of great songs that defy categorisation. Rock? Pop? “It’s 1970s singer-songwriter music”, he says, “because that’s what I am.”
