WHB is based on Warren's musical roots and love of soul music. Thre are 2 discs from WHB "Tales of Ordinary Madness" and "Man in Motion" have been released as Warren Haynes but both releases are focused on soul sounds and less on the bluesy\jazzy sounds of Gov't Mule, Allman Bros and other jam bands Warren is known for...
The 2011 release\tour has been focused on funky grooves with Warren's guitar giving way to interplay with the sax, keyboards and backing vocalists. Often Warren has taken backseat to the sweet soulful sounds of the band letting the feeling of the rhythm and tones creep in to your heart... only to blow you off center with his soaring driven guitar solos sneaking up on you.
Overall the sounds created by WHB have funky city groove with heart and soul a mile wide.
Your Wildest Dreams
Warren Haynes Band Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You know where you can find me
I'll be there, yeah, in your wildest dreams
Heard the word out on the street
Oh, that you're feeling guilty
Your decision was made in anger and haste
Say a love like ours will stand the test of time
When I needed someone to hold me
You are often gone with someone else
And time don't stop the pain with tears I, I cried
Now you're telling me we can put it all behind us
Yes, you're telling me, "Honey, this time I've changed"
Well, if you need
You know where you can find me
I'll be there, yeah, in your wildest dreams
Oh, but I can't deny what we had was real
So real that I might never be the same
Sometimes the flame burned brighter, brighter than the sun
And we cooled ourselves in the soft summer rain
Yeah, sometimes I still long to hold you, to drown myself again
And time, it never gonna stop the pain with tears I've cried
And I'm not trying to say I won't be lost without you
I'm not trying to say I won't breakdown
But if you need me
You know where you can find me
I'll be there, yeah, in your wildest dreams, oh yeah
I'll be there, oh
Yes, I will
Time ain't never gonna stop the pain
Time ain't never gonna stop the pain
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh
You know where you can find me, oh
Time ain't never
Never, never, never, never gonna stop the pain
Oh
If you need me
You know where you can find me
Yes, I'll be there in your wildest dreams

Just watched this AMAZING concert on AxsTV (Mark Cuban's network) and I waited 2 hours to hear this song and they cut it from the broadcast!! Must have been long, but DAMN, it was the best song on "Man In Motion" and now I see it was the best song they did live even though EVERY song was killer. Warren is an AMAZING singer/songwriter/guitarist. Can't wait until the next album hits. Thank you for this Warren!!
