Memories And Music

This ebook contains
songs, poems, and stories
with pictures
from the early years of Roger Hall,
ASCAP songwriter,
poet, and author
His first complete pop song
was recorded in 1961
while he was in the U.S. Army
stationed in Frankfurt, Germany.
Here are the lyrics:
DREAM WORLD!
There’s a rainbow up in the sky
As the birds chirp a lullaby,
It’s a DREAM WORLD.
If I had only one last wish
I would ask to establish
A DREAM WORLD.
A place where money means less,
A place made for happiness,
Many people go to pray
Asking God for that promised Day
In a DREAM WORLD.
When I have bad dreams at night,
I wake up in an awful fright,
Where’s that DREAM WORLD?
A place where violence is gone,
A place where freedom lives on,
Maybe sometime I’ll find this place,
Until then I’ll have to erase
This DREAM WORLD.
Yes Sweet DREAM WORLD…
DREAM WORLD!

gentle morning mist
your cool cleansing drops provide

silken white sewn into roots
of togetherness.
