Lyrics
There was a young man
A young man existed
Watched his life unfold each day
He observed his life unfolding daily
He only wanted to play
His sole desire was to engage in playful activities
He only needed a ray
All he required was a glimmer of hope or light
And then he found out
Subsequently, he discovered
One rainy afternoon, he'd lost
During a rainy afternoon, he realized he had lost everything he had earned and was rejected
All he'd earned and was tossed
All his achievements were gone, and he was cast aside
In the rivers he'd crossed
In the challenges he faced
And there he came across the dreamer
He encountered someone called the dreamer
Who told him life was but a dream
This dreamer conveyed that life is an illusion or a fantasy
And all that you can see is all that you can be
What you perceive is the extent of what you can achieve
There was a young love destined to get old someday
A young love anticipated growing old together
Didn't happen that way
However, this anticipation did not materialize
They never learned how to say
They never mastered the skill of expressing themselves
We've got a long, long time between us
There exists a considerable span of time between them
We've got a long, long way to go
A vast distance separates them
But I believe if we let it, our love will grow
Despite this, there's a belief that their love will flourish if allowed
And there he came across the dreamer
Again, he encounters the dreamer
Who told him life was but a dream
Reiterating that life is an illusion or a fantasy
And all that you can see is all that you can be
Similar to earlier, emphasizing limitations of perception
We've got a long, long time between us
A lengthy duration separates them
We've got a long, long way to go
A great distance is yet to be traversed
We've got a long, long time between us
Repetition of the considerable time gap
We've got a long, long way to go
Reiteration of the extensive distance remaining
We've got a long, long time between us
Continued emphasis on the significant time gap
We've got a long, long, long way to go
An even longer journey is implied
Long way to go
A reaffirmation of the long journey ahead
(Long, long time between us)
(Reiteration of the vast time between them)
And I believe if we let it, our love will grow
Expressing belief that their love will flourish if allowed
Our love will grow
Confident assertion that their love will indeed grow
Our love will grow
Reiteration that their love will develop and strengthen
