Runnin' Down A Dream

Every guest of the Hotel Melanoma dreams of the day when something approaching a melanoma “cure” is discovered. Realistically, that day is probably a long way off in the future; and perhaps the best we can hope for is a time when melanoma is a chronic, manageable disease that most can live with. The only we thing we can know for sure is that treatment advances won’t come easy or cheap.

So here’s a lyrical “thank you” to everyone involved in doing or supporting melanoma treatment research, to the tune of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers’ “Runnin’ Down A Dream”…

It is a beautiful day, the sun shines down
We have our SPF on, we are thrivin’
Black’s new pink, Chels and Al are bloggin’
Keep the sun away, we’re not fryin’

Yeah, runnin’ down a dream
That never will come for free
Workin’ on a mystery, goin’ wherever it leads
Runnin’ down a dream

We pray for good, like anything is possible
Did mole patrol and stopped our fries
We pray for days that our cause is unstoppable
It is always bold, pink still shines

Yeah, runnin’ down a dream
That never will come for free
Workin’ on a mystery, goin’ wherever it leads
Runnin’ down a dream

Time rolls on, our moles ain’t dark
We slap the sunscreen on to save our hides
There’s something good, waitin’ down this road
We’re searching for whatever works fine

We’re runnin’ down a dream
That never will come for free
Workin’ on a mystery, goin’ wherever it leads
Runnin’ down a dream

Yeah, we’re runnin’ down a dream
That never will come for free
Workin’ on a mystery, we’re goin’ wherever it leads
We’re runnin’ down a dream
