Dream River

Of the many things that Charles brought to my life was music. He loved it, needed it, surrounded himself with it. We used to sing together in the car - all the songs we grew up with - and make the grandkids crazy. "Dream River" is one of my favorite songs by one of Charles' favorite groups. I didn't know it would take on such meaning for me.

Dream River, The Mavericks

Floating down the dream river,
With the moon and stars above,
Maybe they can help me find a way
To have your whole love

Sleeping in the darkest room
Dreaming you are in my arms
Oh how I wish my dream comes true
With all my heart

Don't want this night to end
Don't want to live without you

Floating down the dream river
With you by my side
I know it's make-believe
But please don't wake me
I don't mind

Don't want this night to end
Don't want to live without you

Floating down the dream river
With you by my side
I know it's make-believe
But please don't wake me
I don't mind
I know it's make-believe
But please don't wake me
I don't mind.
