This...this is about memories. And loss--and of course, the pain that goes with it. For some, it's a permanent pain--which is why they say "the love I lost to a death" hurts differently than the love that turned away. Regardless...it's truth here in the hands and heart of John Lee Hooker. The dream that stays awake in the daytime hours and then returns after dark in the middle of the night.
It never fades. It lingers, no matter how much you can understand about the timing and meaning. And you would give anything in your body and soul for one more time...one more moment....
