Dont Forget (Dreams)
Reid Jamieson
(Dedicated to all the lost ladies of Vancouver's east side. You are not forgotten)
You know
how much it’s gonna hurt
'til that needle is inserted
in your vein again
You try
to pretend there is no pain
But I see it in the stains
under your fingernails
Hold on tight,
Keep looking for an answer
Hold on tight
Remember younger days
When dreams
were
something you
could
say you had
Don’t forget
because the world
forgot you
When night falls
is the newspaper your bed
Does it have you seeing red
What the people with money
complain about
You’re drunk
on a can of aerosol
And your tales are getting taller
than the will
to make it work
Hold on tight,
Keep looking for an answer
Hold on tight
Remember younger days
When dreams were something
you could
say you had
Don’t forget
because the world
forgot you
You spoil
your self while asleep
With sweet precious dreams
Held in the arms of your mother
It’s gone
the fire in your eyes
The face you recognize
is just another
sad memory
Hold on tight,
Keep looking for an answer
Hold on tight
Remember younger days
Hold on tight,
Keep looking for an answer
Hold on tight
Remember younger days
When dreams were something
you could
say you had
Don’t forget
because the world
forgot you
You are not forgotten:

Train Songs
Reid recently rode from Vancouver to Toronto on a very special train with CBC's Vinyl Cafe Reid was asked to join the them for a very intimate show on the rails where Stuart Mclean told stories and Reid sang some moving covers to bring it home. This special show aired on CBC Radio in June 2008. Here's a selection of train inspired songs that Reid conjured up for the show. CBC Podcast also available.

Hey, what's with all the free full length MP3s?Now that does seem a little counter-sales-income type of thing... but we hope you will have a listen, share with all of your friends, and then buy a record anyway - as this is how young artists manage to eat, live and make more music. So please enjoy them, share them, don't sell them, and help us spread the word as far as you can. Thanks, eh?
Please be sure to request Reid on CBC's new Radio 2 when you get a chance. That would be swell.
