about

This is s song that I wrote from a place of deep pain and frustration... halfway through the writing of the song, the actual act of writing the song transformed my experience... just another example of why these songs are intrinsically linked with my own personal development and healing journey... another example as well of why these songs need to be heard by real people who are willing to invest in their own process of transformation...

lyrics

Ocean Of Dreams

Song #382 | 5/28/08-6/22/08 | CD: Ocean of Dreams

Sometimes I feel so fragile
That the merest hint of a breeze
Could pick me up and scatter me
Across the ocean of dreams…

Sometimes I cannot find
The strength to smile
And I am filled with dis-ease
Then a look from you
Could shatter me
Across the ocean of dreams

Across the ocean of dreams (X3)

Sometimes I feel like
I’m made of glass
Sometimes I feel like
I’m never gonna last
And I want to see you…
one more time…before I go
Yes I want to see you…
one more time…before I go

Across the ocean of dreams (X3)

And then I remember
As I stumble through the shards
That I assemble myself
From my dreams
And I decide what they mean…
(and it lifts me up)

Across the ocean of dreams (X3)

Sometimes I feel like
I’m made of glass
And I was born
To allow the light to pass
Right through me
To illuminate your eyes
Let the light through me
to illuminate the skies

Across the ocean of dreams (X3)

Sometimes I feel so powerful
That I can smash right through
Any obstacle that blocks my way
Or obscures what is true…

Across the ocean of dreams (X3)

Sometimes I feel
Like I’m made of glass
And I was born
To allow the love to pass
Right through me
To illuminate your eyes
Let the love through me
To illuminate the skies
Let the love through me
To illuminate your eyes
Let the love through me
To illuminate the skies

Across the ocean of dreams
(X3 high intensity, then 1x soft and low)

about

Mark Shepard Albany, New York

Welcome to my “Life In Song” project.

Since 1976, I’ve been obsessively and compulsively writing songs. Some of them are inspired by my own life, my attempts to understand love, life, spirituality, peace and justice.

While I recently have started to get a little recognition, you’ve probably never heard my songs ANYWHERE.

But now you can hear them... here... Download. Share. Thanks!
