My feelings about this song. My son passed away this year, he was 23. He was a passenger in a vehicle that turned over and landed in a foot of water. He drowned. I have been looking for signs from him since. For the past 3 weeks, I had this song stuck in my mind. However, I knew only the words..."hey now hey now, don't dream it's over." I thought about it day and night and could not get it out of my mind. Even at night. So, I woke up in middle of the night and thought....I have to get up and look up the lyrics to this...I felt compelled to do so. But I waited until the morning at 7:30 am and ran to my computer, knowing that it would be profound. It was. Does anyone have any thoughts on what this means? I know he sent it to me.
