Kerouac's Dream
written by Allan Taylor
sung by Allan Taylor


Kerouac dreamed a poet's dream
He said the poem comes
From where you've been
It's in notion, a trick of fate
It's in taking to the road
When the road can't wait

It's a long white line along a holy road
A noble highway made of gold
Too young to die and you're mad to live
You want everything there is that life can give

It's a beautiful dream with a sad refrain
You go all the way to come back again
But it's what you do, and it's what you learn
It's how the scene plays out
With every turn

Maybe you'll burn when you fly too high
Better to burn than never try
Maybe you'll fall, maybe you'll fly
Maybe you'll rise above it all and touch the sky

You may get it right
You may get it wrong
But you'll do what you do to get along
‘Cause a lesson learned is a favour owed
And it's pay back time when you're on the road

It's a beautiful dream with a sad refrain
You go all the way to come back again
But it's what you do, and it's what you learn
It's how the scene plays out
With every turn

It's a beautiful dream with a sad refrain
You go all the way to come back again
But it's what you do, and it's what you learn
It's how the scene plays out
With every turn
