Biography

Rock band from Champaign, Illinois, USA. They named the band [a254406], from the REO Speed Wagon, a 1915 truck that was designed by [b]R[/b]ansom [b]E[/b]li [b]O[/b]lds. Doughty had seen the name written across the blackboard when he walked into his History of Transportation class on the very first day they had decided to look for a name. Rather than pronouncing [b]REO[/b] as a single word as the motor company did, they chose to spell out the name with the individual letters each pronounced [b]("R-E-O")[/b]. Formed in 1967, the band cultivated a following during the 1970s and achieved significant commercial success throughout the 1980s. [Link] (1980) contained four US Top 40 hits and is the group's best-selling album, with over ten million copies sold.

LYRICS

There was a time some time ago
When every sunrise meant a sunny day, oh a sunny day
But now when the morning light shines in
It only disturbs the dreamland where I lay, oh where I lay
I used to thank the lord when I'd wake
For life and love and the golden sky above me
But now I pray the stars will go on shinin', you see in my dreams you love me
Daybreak is a joyful time
Just listen to the songbird harmonies, oh the harmonies
But I wish the dawn would never come
I wish there was silence in the trees, oh the trees
If only I could stay asleep, at least I could pretend you're thinkin' of me
'Cause nighttime is the one time I am happy, you see in my dreams

[Chorus:]
We climb and climb and at the top we fly
Let the world go on below us, we are lost in time
And I don't know really what it means
All I know is that you love me, in my dreams

[Solo]

I keep hopin' one day I'll awaken, and somehow she'll be lying by my side
And as I wonder if the dawn is really breakin'
She touches me and suddenly I'm alive

[Chorus 2x]

Oho, in my dreams
