Dream Of You and I
This is, uh
Based on some music that I heard in a dream
That I saw in a dream
Called, it's going to be called "you and I", ouch!
'Cause it's what the people in the dream were saying
You and I, you and I, you and I
All for you
It's like that, I heard the people singing that in a dream
Yeah, and it was a dream where I was in an auditorium at a college
And everybody was congregated and singing the same words
And there was this, y'know a bunch of
This band on stage and they were like, y'know, sorta spacey Deadhead band
With teen- y'know, like, guys in their twenties, like a bunch of grunge guys but
Kinda playing this, this, other thing, not like what I'm playing here on guitar
And the people kept on beating out, uh
Rhythms on drumsticks
This really great rhythm, it was in like, 7/4, this really cool space jam
And what it was, it was a song
I dreamed that this song was about, uh, about this guy, uh
Or, y'know, the person in the song is singing to his lover
Supposedly
That uh, y'know, he's completely theirs
The lover has forbidden anybody to have contact with him
The lover has taken away his freedom, taken away his days and nights
Taken away his, y'know, his dreams
Uh, sent away his friends
Forbidden him to, y'know, get close to his parents, all that stuff
And what it was, it was an AIDS rally
And that song was about AIDS
Or about something like that
So every time the refrain came around
The people would say "you and I, you and I, you and I"
And they point to the sign that said, y'know, like, it said AIDS with a circle with a slash through it
And they go "all for you"
They go like, point to the sign, so that was the dream
I woke up with it
'Kay?
Anyway, as long as you got that on tape, I'll remember that
Sueño contigo y conmigo
Esto es, eh
Basado en una música que escuché en un sueño
Que vi en un sueño
Llamado, va a ser llamado 'tú y yo', ¡ay!
Porque es lo que la gente en el sueño estaba diciendo
Tú y yo, tú y yo, tú y yo
Todo por ti
Es así, escuché a la gente cantando eso en un sueño
Sí, y era un sueño donde estaba en un auditorio en una universidad
Y todos estaban congregados y cantando las mismas palabras
Y había, ya sabes, un montón de
Esta banda en el escenario y eran como, ya sabes, una banda Deadhead espacial
Con chicos adolescentes, ya sabes, como, chicos en sus veintes, como un montón de chicos grunge pero
Tocando algo diferente, no como lo que estoy tocando aquí en la guitarra
Y la gente seguía marcando, eh
Ritmos en palillos de tambor
Un ritmo realmente genial, era como, en 7/4, este jam espacial realmente genial
Y lo que era, era una canción
Soñé que esta canción trataba sobre, eh, sobre este chico, eh
O, ya sabes, la persona en la canción está cantando a su amante
Supuestamente
Que, ya sabes, él es completamente de ella
El amante ha prohibido que nadie tenga contacto con él
El amante le ha quitado su libertad, le ha quitado sus días y noches
Le ha quitado, ya sabes, sus sueños
Eh, alejado a sus amigos
Le ha prohibido, ya sabes, acercarse a sus padres, todas esas cosas
Y lo que era, era una manifestación sobre el SIDA
Y esa canción trataba sobre el SIDA
O algo así
Así que cada vez que llegaba el estribillo
La gente decía 'tú y yo, tú y yo, tú y yo'
Y señalaban el cartel que decía, ya sabes, decía SIDA con un círculo con una barra a través
Y decían 'todo por ti'
Señalaban el cartel, así que ese fue el sueño
Me desperté con eso
¿De acuerdo?
De todos modos, mientras lo tengas grabado, lo recordaré
