about

Wrote this song soon after I moved out to live on a 500 acre ranch in Dover Canyon on the Central Coast of California. Went through a writing flurry of about 5 songs, and this was one of them. New life, new hope, and new adventures all lay ahead. Once again, some great guitar and sax work by Steve Card.

lyrics

Sweet Reverie
by John Beccia


Walkin' into the heart of the land
Will I ever be touchin' love's hand ?
Well I'll just have to wait and see
Lettin' it be such sweet reverie

Sinkin' into the depths of the dream
Will ever know what love can mean ?
Well I'll just have to wait and see
Lettin' it be such sweet reverie


Wakin' up in the dead of the night
Will I ever again feel quite right ?
Well I'll just have to wait and see
Lettin' it be such sweet reverie

Reachin' out for the edge of the skies
Listenin' for the earth's tender replies
Well I'll just have to wait and see
Lettin' it be such sweet reverie


Pourin' out all these feelings inside
Will I ever relive what has died?
Well I'll just have to wait and see
Lettin' it be such sweet reverie

Heading out for the wide open space
Will a new love reveal a new place?
Well I'll just have to wait and see
Lettin' it be such sweet reverie
