about

"Dream Alone" é a quarta canção do EP e é, em parte, uma homenagem a alguns dos heróis musicais da banda, através de uma cantiga de desamor.
O João Nuno, uns tempos antes, tinha comprado um harmónio indiano, que tinha um som tão bom quanto um cheiro muito ruim. é esse instrumento que podem ouvir em diálogo com a guitarra na introdução da música. No restante, realce para a Maria João e a Graça, que estão spot-on em toda a duração da faixa, num choro dolente pela personagem da cantiga.

lyrics

I have longed for you
as many times before
You have long forgotten
the path to my door

If you have thoughts on this
just keep'em to your own
and please leave my broken dream alone.

Don't forget the man you’ve put
To the ground
Never kick the one who’s
Already down

It’s a freezing river
It can cold burn bones
So please, leave his broken dream alone

Cold floor, dirty ground are
your friends, they soothe your day
A minor price
the shameful fools must pay

While I cut off memories
and the love we've sowned
Please, leave this broken dream alone

To forget you must first
remember well
Suffer truth ‘til there’s no story
Left to tell

As body once sore
turns into a stepping stone
You'll heal and leave your broken dream alone
You’ll heal and leave your broken dream alone
Heal and leave your broken dream alone.
