Kerouac's Dream-Allan Taylor Kerouac dreamed a poets dream He said the poem comes from where you've been It's in a notion a trick of fate It's in taking to the road when the road can't wait It's a long white line along a holy road A noble highway made of gold Too young to die and you're mad to live You want everything there is that life can give It's a beautiful dream with a sad refrain You go all the way and come back again But it's what you do and it's what you learn And it's how the scene plays out with every turn They say you burn when you fly too high Better to burn than never try Maybe you'll fall and maybe you'll fly Maybe you'll rise above it all and touch the sky You may get it right you may get it wrong But you'll do what you do just to get along 'Cause a lesson learned is a favour owed And it's payback time when you're on the road It's a beautiful dream with a sad refrain You go all the way and come back again But it's what you do and it's what you learn And it's how the scene plays out with every turn It's a beautiful dream with a sad refrain You go all the way and come back again But it's what you do and it's what you learn And it's how the scene plays out with every turn
