Lyrics
In that dream, I'm as old as the mountains
Still as starlight reflected in fountains then
Children grown on the edge of the ocean
Kept like jewelry, kept with devotion
In that dream moving slow through the morning time

You would come to me then, without answers
Lick my wounds and remove my demands for now
Eucalyptus and orange trees are blooming
In that dream, there's no darkness a-loomin'
In that dream, moving slow through the morning time

In that dream I could hardly contain it
All my life I will wait to attain it
Then, then, then, oh

I know someday the smoke will all burn off
All these voices I'll someday have turned off then
I will see you someday when I've woken
I'll be so happy just to have spoken
I'll have so much to tell you about it then
Ah, ah, ah

In that dream I could hardly contain it
All my life I will wait to attain it
Then, then, then, oh

Wide-eyed walker
Don't betray me
I will wake one day, don't delay me
Wide-eyed leaver
Always going

Genius Lyrics
Fleet Foxes – Grown Ocean
It’s been said that there’s nothing duller than listening to someone else describe their dreams, but from the first heraldic strums of Grown Ocean, the closer on Fleet Foxes
Fleet Foxes – Battery Kinzie
Battery Kinzie is a concrete fort that was built to protect Puget Sound. There is a reference to the US Marines hymn on the album’s opener, “Montezuma to Tripoli”, Battery Kinzie
Fleet Foxes – Blue Spotted Tail
The song features Pecknold taking an existentialist perspective and considering how meaningless life is. It comes after “The Shrine/An Argument,” where Pecknold sings about a lover
Fleet Foxes – The Shrine / An Argument
“The Shrine / An Argument” clocks in at 8 minutes, far longer than anything Fleet Foxes have done before. But it perfectly encapsulates all of the strengths of Helplessness Blues
Fleet Foxes – Helplessness Blues
At or near the top of every “top songs of 2011” listicle, “Helplessness Blues” is the lament of a boy who thinks he’s special growing into a man who recognizes, painfully, that
Fleet Foxes – Sim Sala Bim
“Sim Sala Bim” is the third track off of Fleet Foxes' 2011 album Helplessness Blues. In the song, singer Robin Pecknold tells the story of a man who is left his partner. The
Fleetwood Mac – Landslide
Nicks wrote “Landslide” while in Aspen, Colorado, inspired, while looking at the mountains, by the thought that everything in her life she’d been building could come crashing down
In The Woods... – Blue Oceans Rise (Like a War)
There is a wall inside our eyes / I can't remember when I was your dream / There is a sign calling in the sky / I listen to your words / See your visions and dreams / I hear angels
Fleet Foxes – Someone You'd Admire
“Someone You’d Admire” loses itself in the combination of Pecknold’s gentle croon and a hollow-sounding acoustic.
Fleet Foxes – Montezuma
Robin Pecknold writes in a style rich with imagery and symbolism. Much of his work might better be described as representation of feelings and emotion rather than any one
Fleet Foxes – Helplessness Blues [Solstice]
[Verse 1] / I was raised up believing / I was somehow unique / Like a snowflake, distinct among snowflakes / Unique in each way you can see / But now after some thinking / I think
Fleet Foxes – Bedouin Dress
[Verse 1] / If to borrow is to take and not return / I have borrowed all my lonesome life / And I can't, no, I can't get through / The borrower's debt is the only regret of my
Fleet Foxes – The Plains / Bitter Dancer
Phil Ek, producer of Helplessness Blues revealed that the ending bit of The Plains / Bitter Dancer was written by Robin in Port Townsend, 50 miles outside Seattle, in late 2008
Fleet Foxes – Lorelai
With lyrics that poetically explore slowly coming to terms with a break-up, “Lorelai” bears a striking musical resemblance to Bob Dylan’s anti-plagiarism anthem “4th Time Around”.
