Street of Dreams
Midnight Dreams: Embracing Hope on the Street of Dreams
Lyrics
Midnight, you heavy laden, it's midnight
Midnight, a burdensome time, arrives.
Come on and trade in your old dreams for new
Encouraging to abandon old dreams for new ones.
Your new dreams for old
Suggesting a willingness to exchange new dreams for old ones.
I know where they're bought
Knowledge of where dreams are acquired.
I know where they're sold
Knowledge of where dreams are traded or discarded.
Midnight, you've got to get there at midnight
Emphasizing the need to reach a destination at midnight.
And you'll be met there by others like you
Expectation of meeting others in a similar situation.
Brothers as blue
Reference to companions who share a sense of sadness (blue).
Smiling on the street of dreams
Positive emotions observed on the street of dreams.
Love laughs at a king
Love is indifferent to royalty.
Kings don't mean a thing
Suggesting the insignificance of kings.
On the street of dreams
The setting of dreams, which may include challenges.
Dreams broken in two can be made like new
Broken dreams can be restored on the street of dreams.
On the street of dreams
Reiteration of the potential for dream renewal.
Gold, sliver and gold
Valuable elements like gold are present in the moonlight.
All you can hold is in the moonbeams
Abundance suggested, held in moonbeams.
Poor, no one is poor
Asserting that no one is poor.
Long as love is sure
Poverty is irrelevant as long as love is certain.
On the street of dreams
Reaffirmation of positive experiences on the street of dreams.
Midnight, look at the steeple, it's midnight
Observing the midnight hour and a church steeple.
Unhappy people, it's ringing with joy
Noting unhappiness in people, contrasted with joyous ringing.
It's ringing with cheer
The joy and cheer generated by the present moment.
'Cause yesterday's gone
Acknowledging the past is gone.
Tomorrow is near
Anticipation of the near future.
Midnight, the heart is lighter at midnight
Lighter hearts experienced at midnight.
Things will be brighter the moment you find
Expectation of a brighter future upon finding similar companions.
More of your kind
Reference to finding more people with positive emotions.
Smiling on the street of dreams
Smiles observed on the street of dreams.
Love laughs at a king
Love remains unaffected by kings or royalty.
Kings don't mean a thing
Reiteration of the insignificance of kings.
On the street of dreams
Emphasizing the setting of dreams.
Dreams broken in two can be made like new
Restoration of broken dreams highlighted again.
On the street of dreams
Reaffirming the potential for renewal on the street of dreams.
Gold, sliver and gold
Valuable elements found in moonbeams reiterated.
All you can hold is in the moonbeams
Abundance suggested, held in moonbeams, restated.
Poor, no one is poor
Reaffirming that no one is poor.
Long as love is sure
Reiteration of the insignificance of poverty when love is certain.
On the street of dreams
Positive experiences and emotions reiterated.
