A Dream Song: I stood on a cliff with my three-year-old daughter, overlooking a long, beautiful valley blanketed in tall, green grass. The wind swept through, making the grass move like ocean waves. The little one was flying a kite, gripping it tightly against the strong breeze. A little afraid of the wind’s force, she looked to me for comfort. I began to sing: ‘Is that a kite you’re flying, or is it your dream? Don’t let it go… Running Before the Wind.’ Years later, while visiting the Waipio Valley in Hawaii, I realized it was the lush green valley from my dream. The song’s Big Island vibe, male harmonies, and Hawaiian steel guitar perfectly evoke the sunny, breezy sensations of that dream.
