Lyrics

You can dream, but you can’t hide

You can imagine a different reality, but you cannot escape or ignore the emotions you harbor within.

From the things that you feel inside

Emphasizes the inevitability of confronting one's internal feelings despite attempts to avoid them.

Let it go for just a while

Suggests the idea of temporarily letting go of inner turmoil or emotions.

And suddenly your home again

After a brief respite, you find yourself back in the familiar surroundings of your emotions or personal space.


I always like those crashing waves along the way

Expressing a positive sentiment towards the powerful and impactful nature of challenges or difficulties (crashing waves).

Winds of change, please don’t blow my way

Expresses a desire for stability and a plea for life's uncertainties not to disturb one's current state.

And holding on now to my yesterdays

Reflecting on and holding onto the past experiences and memories.

Well baby now that’s ok, cause I’m holding on to my yesterdays

Reassuring that holding onto the past is acceptable, suggesting a sense of comfort in nostalgia.


My memories they serve me now

The recollection of memories plays a significant role in the present, shaping one's perspective.

Take me back to where I long to be

Longing to return to a specific time or place evoked by cherished memories.

Suddenly I’m free to be

Feeling liberated and unburdened by the past, allowing for personal growth.

Everything I’d dreamed I’d be

Fulfilling aspirations and becoming the person one has always envisioned.


I always like those crashing waves along the way

Reiteration of the positive impact of challenges or turbulent times in life (crashing waves).

Winds of change, please don’t blow my way

Reiterating the desire for stability and requesting not to be disrupted by life's changes.

And holding on now to my yesterdays

Continuing to hold onto and cherish past experiences and moments.

Well baby now that’s ok, cause I’m holding on to my yesterdays

Reassurance that preserving and valuing the past is acceptable and comforting.


I always like those crashing waves along the way

Re-emphasizing the positive impact of challenges or difficulties in life.

Winds of change, please don’t blow my way

Renewing the plea for stability and resistance to unwelcome changes.

And holding on now to my yesterdays

Maintaining the grip on past experiences and memories as they continue to shape the present.

Well baby now that’s ok, cause I’m holding on to my yesterdays

Reiterating that it's acceptable and okay to hold onto one's past.


You can dream, but you can’t hide

Repeating the idea that one can imagine a different reality, but emotions cannot be ignored.

From the things that you feel inside

Reiterating the inevitability of facing and acknowledging inner emotions.
