A Dream I Have In Which I Am Soaring Over Alaska

                                                   I am always 30 in this dream

I was flying, flying over the Chugach mountain range
Soaring high above Mount Marcus Baker
That noted climber's life taker

My hair, my hair was whipping in the wind
And my glasses kept fogging over
But I could still see everything, I could see forever

I flew like an eagle through the slate blue sky
OK, maybe like a large, ungainly pterodactyl
Or some such pterosaur

Still, I was flying
Over and above and through the clouds
Beyond the clouds

Yes I was flying
Over and above and through the clouds
Beyond the clouds

I flew like an eagle through the slate blue sky
OK, maybe like a large, ungainly pterodactyl
Or some such pterosaur

I looked down upon Tolsona Lake resort
Some people were fishing off the floating pier
I remembered a girl I knew who used to work there

Soared my way towards the Richardson Highway
Made a wide circle around Copper Center
To see Wrangell - St. Elias in all it's splendor

I was flying
Over and above and through the clouds
Beyond the clouds

Yes I was flying
Over and above and through the clouds
Beyond the clouds
