Lyrics
Released in the RCA UK album "The Best Of British" ~ original recording not released on vinyl
 
Notes: Perry returned to Nashville in January, 1975, for recording sessions which resulted in his final
album produced by Chet Atkins and marking the tenth anniversary of his first recordings there.
As with his sessions two years earlier, it appears that both Atkins and Perry toyed with a number
of directions the result of which may have turned out to be very different than originally planned.
Perry experimented with a number of recordings and more than a few were left unreleased.
He recorded at least 19 tracks in Nashville of which 10 were released in the final album and two
additional as singles only. The original title track for the album was intended to be
"World of Dreams" composed by British crooner Des O'Connor.
