about

This song was written in July 2013 in tribute to our friend Sean Meyers and first performed live July 26, 2013, at These Songs For You-Celebrating The Life of Sean Albert Meyers.

TBL was joined by Sean's bandmates in Norman Rockwell during the Winter of 2014 for this recording.

lyrics

I had a dream that you took yourself out of this world
Full steam ahead, full steam ahead
Friends and family calling you to turn around, but you kept on
Full steam ahead, full steam ahead

I've been high upon whiskey mountain
Climb up to the top, there's a whiskey fountain
But you can't stay long

I had a dream the lights were dimmed and you took the stage
Full steam ahead, full steam ahead
Everyone around putting the book down, but you turned the page
Full steam ahead, full steam ahead

I've been high upon whiskey mountain
Climb up to the top, there's a whiskey fountain
But you can't stay long, you can't stay long

In my dream I heard your song, I awoke, something was wrong

I've been high upon whiskey mountain
Climb to the very top, there's a whiskey fountain
But you can't stay long, you can't stay long
