about

I was asked to write this song by Brian Keenan's sisters. Brian was one of the famous Beirut hostages. I've had the pleasure of singing this in front of Brian and his words I got it "Bang on".

lyrics

When I............when I dream, I’m free
When I............when I dream, I’m free
My body’s bound, but my soul is free
These chains are tight but the don’t hurt
Because I know, you think of me, because I know, you think of me,

When I............when I dream, I dream of you
When I............when I dream, I dream of you
I hope for freedom but all I see
Are these four walls that imprison me
But I’m coming home, I will be free, I’m coming home, I will be free

When I............when I dream, I’m home with you
When I............when I dream, I’m home
All these years taken from my life,
So many years, but the end’s in sight
Yes I’m coming home, I will be free, I’m coming home, I will be free
