Music lives in our hearts and minds. Broadcast transmissions carry out into space and travel forever reaching other worlds. In 2016 we lost a lot of folks and this was a tune I wrote as a tribute to those whose dreams live on in our hearts, minds, and space. The references in the chorus should be pretty clear but it is Bowie, Prince, Maurice White, and Merle Haggard. Now I will leave it up to you to find the references in the lyrics. The team of Patty and Tony now brings in our daughter Holly doing lead and harmony vocals with Patty layering some doubling and harmony on the bridge. Hope you enjoy. https://soundcloud.com/tsanders/where-dreams-live-on

Nice tribute to a world of lost talent...and we'll mention Gregg Allman also. A sad year indeed.
Nice work on the vocals!
We'd enjoy seeing the lyric and RT's, etc.
Enjoyed it!

Janice and Bud - Where are you in GA? I grew up there in the Cedartown, Buchanan, Bremen area. Mom and brothers still live there.
OK - Here are the lyrics - not all the people referenced were musicians. In verse 3 John Glenn said that one of the amazing things about being in space was seeing multiple sunrises in a single day - That transformed into sunsets lasting forever. Yeah I was already complete with the tune when Greg passed. I played many Allman Bros. tunes in my many years of playing live.
Verse 1: There's a place in our hearts Where memories of a lifetime Stay alive in a space Never fading with the hands of time
Verse 2: There's a place in our minds Where the sounds of joy and laughter Take us back to a time When the music played our favorite songs
Chorus: Where dreams live on and heroes live forever Where purple reigns and Ziggy plays guitar
Where dreams live on Beyond the twelfth of never On silver wings we can fly
Verse 3: There's a place in the stars Where sunsets last forever and the circle of time sings a song made just for you
Verse 4: Take a walk with a friend travel back from the beginning by the mystical stream sweet freedom on a beam of light
Chorus: Where dreams live on and heroes live forever Where purple reigns and Ziggy plays guitar
Where dreams live on Beyond the twelfth of never On silver wings we can fly
Bridge: Breaking from their earthly ties - they move on waves moving out through space Gently reaching out to other worlds Where dreams live on
Verse 5: There's a place in our hearts Where memories of a lifetime Stay alive in a space Never fading with the sands of time
Chorus: Where dreams live on and heroes live forever Where purple reigns and Ziggy plays guitar
Where dreams live on Beyond the twelfth of never On silver wings we can fly
Chorus: Where dreams live on and heroes live forever Where purple reigns and Ziggy plays guitar
Where dreams live on Beyond the twelfth of never On silver wings we can fly
