About "In My Dream"
In My Dream © 2017 Gary Wayne Clark. All Rights Reserved. Words, Music and Production Registered with WGAWest, Writers Guild of America.
Dark, ethereal and surreal, a haunting indie rock duet driven by a tribal mix of bass-heavy beats interwoven with mystical Native American poetry that resonates like the echoes of a ghostly dream -- Nohuusóho'.
Inspired by Clark's Amazon Top Selling western horror novel “Dead Balance”, the music and lyrics of "In My Dream" (part of a WIP concept album & film) continues a spiritual journey that began with “Logan’s Lament” into the surreal shadow world where Grammys® Recording Academy Artist Gary Wayne Clark (a.k.a. Earamas®; Rise of the Chimera, Passage to Niburu) weaves his musical mystery. Channeling the spirit of the Ancient Ones, Logan Lone Bear Tuu'awata is a troubled Arapaho boy whose spirit is trapped between two worlds as he calls out to his soul mate, Raven Thunder Sky. With a host of ethereal voices speaking a shamanic spectral dream language of Arapaho and English, “In My Dream” delivers a heartfelt message across the divide for those who desperately cling to love... beyond the boundaries of this world.

Song Inspiration
“In My Dream” is driven by the storyline of Clark’s Dead Balance novel, his poem entitled "Secret Lover", the eternal wisdom of a Hopi proverb, “Death's not the end, it's just a change of worlds,” and the inspiration of a traditional Arapaho prayer.
Lyrics / Arapaho [English]
Hoow-uusetee [It is not done]
Heetce’nóóhobé3en [Goodbye, I will see you again]
Nohuusóho' [That is how it is; amen.]
Over the mountain
Across the sea
Just imagine perfect love
And it will be
I’ve searched forever
Inside of me
Just to find a love complete
To set me free
My secret lover
You’re here with me tonight
And your love’s inside of me
I pull you closer
Your body feels so right
But it’s only in my dream.. in my dream..
In my dream.. in my dream
In my dream.. only in my dream
In my dream.. in my dream
In my dream.. only in my dream
Heetih-kou3-iine'etii-n [Live a long life]
Heetih-niini'-iine'etii-n [Live a good life]
Heetih-'iiyoo3-iine'etii-n [Live a clean life]
Hoow-uusetee [It is not done]
Heetce’nóóhobé3en [Goodbye, I will see you again]
Nohuusóho' [Amen.]
You’re mine forever
And for all time
As I hold your photograph
Within my mind
Between the shadows
Only I can see
We’ve created perfect love
In fantasy
My secret lover
Darkness brings you here tonight
And your love will set me free
We’re wrapped together
In the flickering candlelight
But it’s only in my dream… in my dream..
In my dream
In my dream.. only in my dream
In my dream.. in my dream
In my dream.. only in my dream
My secret lover
I hold you close tonight
With our world inside of me
This love’s forever
You’ve turned darkness into light
But it’s only in my dream.. in my dream
In my dream.. in my dream
In my dreams.. only in my dream
In my dream.. in my dream
In my dream.. only in my dream
Heetih-kou3-iine'etii-n [May you live a long life]
Heetih-niini'-iine'etii-n [May you live a good life]
Heetih-'iiyoo3-iine'etii-n [May you live a clean, pure life]
Hoow-uusetee [It is not done]
Heetce’nóóhobé3en [Goodbye, I will see you again]
Nohuusóho' [That is how it is; amen.]
As it was in the beginning
Is now and ever shall be
Worlds without end… Amen.
