[Intro]
I wish to wish, I dream to dream
I try to try and I live to live
And I die to die and I cry to cry
But I know why

[Verse 1]
I wish to wish
And I dream to dream
I try to try
And I live to live
But I die to die
And I cry to cry

[Chorus]
Somewhere in my dreams
Of those who should
Still, the willow weeps
On roses for the dead
In laughs of love

[Verse 2]
From the likes of her
To the time of me
Like the moon to earth
And the sky to sea
Only we're no longer
Allowed to be, to be

[Chorus]
Somewhere in my dreams
Things that should
Live in all the keeps
Echo all the worlds
In laughs of love

[Bridge]
For times that pass my life
I'll search for the sky
That she wanders by

[Chorus]
Somewhere in the dreams
That the skies hold
Still, the willow weeps
On roses for her bed
In laughs of love
Somewhere in the dreams
That the skies hold
Still, the willow weeps
On roses for her bed
In laughs of love

[Instrumental Outro]

Soundgarden

One of the biggest rock bands out of Seattle, Soundgarden was formed in 1984 by singer and rhythm guitarist Chris Cornell, lead guitarist Kim Thayil, and bassist Hiro Yamamoto. Matt Cameron became the band’s full-time drummer in 1986, while bassist Ben Shepherd became a permanent replacement for Yamamoto in 1990. While one of the creators of the Grunge alternative rock and the first to sign to a major label, they only rose to stardom once the genre was popularized by Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains in the early 90s. After achieving great success with 1994’s Superunknown, the band decided to call it quits three years later due to internal squabbles. Eventually they reunited in 2010, releasing new album King Animal two years later. Frontman Chris Cornell committed suicide in a Detroit hotel room on May 17, 2017. He was 52 years old.
