(words & music by Barry Keys) I woke up in the middle of the night and recorded this song as I wrote it. Straight out of the dream state, it is as raw as I can make it. A short verse form. Similar to Haiku. The subconscious reveals all. My reflection on a love from long ago, is sweet and sad at the same time. It was, for me, a little surprising that I still have this longing, but there it is. So, be honest. It really was there. I tried to not notice. Now it is resolved.
I find that when I write my dreams down, right away, before they vaporize, I dream more vividly the next night. Kids at Hathaway Children’s Village would keep ‘dream journals’. We used the model set by Dr. Anne Faraday, a leading psychiatrist with an expertise in dream study.
This is not a typical title track. Usually the title track is really hip and catches on fast. Eclectic for effect.
lyrics
Deep As The Ocean words and music by Barry Keys
When did you love me?
That time was good
I wish that time
Did not end
When did the sun shine?
Skies were all blue
That was
My time with you
Way down
Deep as the ocean
Deep as my feelings can go
There lives a new kind of notion
Something I needed to know
When did you love me?
That time was good
I wish that time
Did not end
