Stevie Nicks Earning Praise for New Solo Album 'In Your Dreams'

I'm just at the other end of your night
I'm always in and out of your light
Right down the middle of all your dreams
In your dreams

The title track of Stevie Nicks’ new album, In Your Dreams, is one of seven songs she wrote with the Eurythmics’ Dave Stewart, who also co-produced the collection. The pair spent the past year recording the album at Stevie’s California home. Other collaborators include Mike Campbell of Tom Petty’s band The Heartbreakers, Stevie’s former bandmate Lindsey Buckingham, and Fleetwood Mac drummer Mick Fleetwood.Stevie refers to the making of “In Your Dreams” as the highlight of her entire career. 

 “I can honestly tell you, the very best year of my life. It shuts down anything else that has ever happened to me. It was so much fun and so grand and so soul-fulfilling that when it was over and we started taking the studio down in December and all the people that had lived in the house that year , you know, started taking their stuff, it was horrifying. I almost just sat on the stairs and cried because I was so sad that it was over.” 

She was a child and I was a child

In this kingdom by the sea

We loved with a love

That was more than a love

I and my Annabel Lee

With a love that the winged

Angels of heaven

They coveted her and me

And the moon never beams

Without bringing me dreams

And the sun never shines

But I see the bright eyes

I lie down by the side

“Annabel Lee”, is an adaptation of an 1849 poem written by Edgar Allan Poe. Other songs on In Your Dreams were inspired by personal events in Stevie’s life. Two date back to poems the singer wrote in the mid-1970s. 

In 2004, Stevie began visiting wounded military personnel at Washington, D.C.’s Walter Reed Army Medical Center and the Bethesda Naval Hospital. She helps lift their spirits by giving each soldier a portable media player filled with her favorite music. Included on her new album is a song called “Soldier’s Angel,” which holds special meaning to her and those she has met in the hospitals. 

 “It was a poem that was written in 2005 and since I have given this poem out to many many families, many many soldiers. And, I always told them, ‘This will be a song one day.’ So, I think this is my most revered song of all time." 

I am a soldier's memory
As I write down these words
I try to write their stories
And explain them to the world

I float through the halls of the hospitals
I am a soldier's nurse
I keep the tears inside
And put them down in verse

I'm a soldier's angel four years later
In a war of words between worlds
About what is wrong and about what is righteous
I am a soldier's girl

Stevie recently wrapped up a co-headlining tour with rock legend Rod Stewart. She hints that her future plans include the possibility of a new Fleetwood Mac album and tour that could happen as early as 2012.

Come on it's time to go upstairs
But I don't want to be leaving you here
I can't go be in that room alone
When I know that you're down here in tears
I'm not asking "forever" from you
I'm just asking to be held for awhile
In a timeless search for love that might work
Still we're already paying the price
But you need some rest
My darling, it's best
But we've already passed it, I cried
Ooohee...
Listen to me
My secret love secretly
Died

Every night you
You tell me everything
Is going to be fine
You calm my nerves when
You hold my hands
Yeah, it feels so fine

Chorus:
I'm just at the other end of your night
I'm always in and out of your light
Right down the middle of all your dreams
In your dreams

Every night you
You love to hear me sing
It's going to be fine
You calm my fear down
It's not a problem
No need to cry

Repeat chorus

Bridge:
Are all those tears necessary
For all that pain that you carry?
You just send those tears away
Come in out of the darkness
It's a beautiful day

Repeat chorus

I'm wishing your wish
I'm wishing my wish
Is going to come true
I'm just a dreamer
A storyteller
It's all about you

It was many and many a year ago

In a kingdom by the sea

That a maiden lived

Whom you may know

By the name of Annabel Lee

This maiden she lived

With no other thought

Than to love and be loved by me

She was a child and I was a child

In this kingdom by the sea

We loved with a love

That was more than a love

I and my Annabel Lee

With a love that the winged

Angels of heaven

They coveted her and me

And the moon never beams

Without bringing me dreams

And the sun never shines

But I see the bright eyes

I lie down by the side

The angels not half

So happy in heaven

Went envying her and me

That was the reason as all men know

In this kingdom by the sea

I am a soldier's angel
Through the eyes of a soldier
Through the eyes of a soldier
I am a soldier's mother

Through the eyes of an angel
I am a soldier myself
And no one walks away
From this battle

I'm a soldier myself
In the presence of angels
I am a soldier's widow
In the background at night

I am a ghostly shadow
As I follow close behind them
I try to push them gently
Back into the light

I am a soldier's angel four years later
In a war of words between worlds
About what is wrong, 'bout what is righteous
I am a soldier's girl

I am a soldier's memory
As I write down these words
I try to write their stories
And explain them to the world

I float through the halls of the hospitals
I am a soldier's nurse
I keep the tears inside
And put them down in verse

I'm a soldier's angel four years later
In a war of words between worlds
About what is wrong and about what is righteous
I am a soldier's girl

I am a soldier's girlfriend
As I look upon their faces
They make me remember my first love
And going out to dances

They make me remember Camelot
And being young and taking chances
They make me fall in love again

They give me all the answers

I'm a soldier's angel four years later
In a war of words between worlds
About what is wrong, 'bout what is righteous
I am a soldier's girl

I'm a soldier in their army
They are the soldiers of my heart
I try to make them smile again
Though it tears me apart

Their bravery leaves me spellbound
I try to be a small part
Bringing them back again
They are the soldiers of my heart

I'm a soldier's angel four years later
In a war of words between worlds
About what is wrong, 'bout what is righteous
I am a soldier's girl

I'm a soldier's angel
Through the eyes of a soldier
Through the eyes of a soldier
I'm a soldier's mother

Through the eyes of an angel
I'm a soldier myself
No one walks away
From this battle
