Faust
Soulful Odyssey: Embracing Love's Transformative Power in Bill Finley's 'Faust'
Lyrics
I was not myself last night couldn't set things right with apologies or flowers
I was not myself last night, unable to reconcile with apologies or gestures.
Out of place as a cryin' clown who could only frown and the play went on for hours
Felt out of place, like a sad clown, in a play that continued for an extended period.
And as I lived my role I swore I'd sell my soul for one love
While living my role, I vowed to sacrifice my soul for a love that would bring laughter.
Who would stand by me and give me back the gift of laughter
Desiring a love that stands by me, providing the gift of laughter.
One love who would stand by me and after making love we'd...
Continuation of the desire for a love that stands by after making love.
Dream a bit of style
Imagining a stylish dream.
We'd dream a bunch of friends
Dreaming of having a group of friends.
Dream each others smile
Sharing dreams and smiles with each other.
And dream it never ends
Desiring a dream that never ends.
I was not myself last night in the morning light I could see the change was showing
Realizing a change in oneself in the morning light after an unusual night.
Like a child who was always poor reaching out for more I could feel the hunger growing
Similar to a perpetually needy child, feeling a growing hunger for more.
And as I lost control I swore I'd sell my soul for one love
As loss of control occurs, the willingness to trade the soul for a love that sings.
Who would sing my song and fill this emptiness inside me
Seeking a love that sings and fills the inner emptiness.
One love who would sing my song and lay beside me while we'd...
Continuation of the desire for a love that sings, laying beside during intimate moments.
Dream a bit of style
Envisioning a stylish dream.
We'd dream a bunch of friends
Dreaming of a group of friends.
Dream each others smile
Sharing dreams and smiles with each other.
And dream it never ends
Yearning for a dream that never ends.
All my dreams are lost and I can't sleep
Expressing frustration as all dreams seem lost, causing sleeplessness.
And sleep alone could ease my mind
Loneliness persists, and sleep alone cannot provide solace to the troubled mind.
All my tears have dried and I can't weep
Tears have dried up, unable to express emotions, and wishing for emotional peace.
Old emotions may they rest in peace and dream, dream a bunch of friends
Reflecting on past emotions and hoping they find peace, concluding with a desire for dream-filled friendships.
Rest in peace, and dream, dream it never ends
Wishing for eternal peace and unending dreams.
