Lyrics
So long ago
Reflecting on a distant past
Was it in a dream?
Questioning if the experience was a dream
Was it just a dream?
Considering the possibility that it was only a dream
I know, yes I know
Acknowledging awareness of the past
It seemed so very real
Describing the dream as vivid and tangible
Seemed so real to me
Emphasizing the realism of the dream
Took a walk down the street
Taking a stroll amidst nature
Through the heat whispered trees
Walking through the warmth of whispering trees
I thought I could hear
Perceiving distant sounds during the walk
Hear
Repetition, possibly emphasizing the auditory experience
Hear
-Hear
-Somebody call out my name (John)
Hearing someone call the name "John"
As it started to rain
As rain begins, setting a scene
Two spirits dancing so strange
Observing unusual, mystical dance of two spirits
Ah! Bowakawa, pousse pousse
Repetition of a mysterious phrase, possibly symbolic
Ah! Bowakawa, pousse pousse
-Ah! Bowakawa, pousse pousse
-Dream, dream away
Encouraging to dream and escape reality
Magic in the air
Sensing magical elements in the atmosphere
Was magic in the air?
Questioning the reality of the magical experience
I believe, yes I believe
Expressing belief in the magical occurrence
More I cannot say
Limiting further explanation of the belief
What more can I say?
Expressing inability to articulate the experience
On a river of sound
Immersed in a sound journey on a metaphorical river
Through the mirror go round, round
Mirroring reflections in a surreal, cyclical manner
I thought I could feel
Feeling sensations during the mirroring process
Feel
Repetition, possibly highlighting the intensity of feelings
Feel
-Feel
-Music touching my soul
Music deeply affecting the soul
Something warm, sudden cold
Experiencing a sudden shift in emotional tone
The spirit dance was unfolding
Witnessing the unfolding of a spiritual dance
Ah! Bowakawa, pousse pousse
Repetition of a mystical phrase, reinforcing a mysterious atmosphere
Ah! Bowakawa, pousse pousse
-Ah! Bowakawa, pousse pousse
-Ah! Bowakawa, pousse pousse
-Ah! Bowakawa, pousse pousse
-Ah! Bowakawa, pousse pousse
