Strange Dream
Enchanting Dreams: Unveiling the Passionate Tale in Corky Siegel's 'Strange Dream'
Lyrics
In the quiet of my dream, like an angel without wings
In a serene dream, there's an angelic presence lacking wings
She floated through the forest greens
A vision of her gracefully moving through green woods
While my heart-strings played higher and higher
While my emotions intensify, symbolized by heart-strings playing higher
And all at once, a sparrow choir, sang
Suddenly, a chorus of sparrows sings, urging action with "Come on baby light my fire"
Come on baby light my fire, light my fire
Repetition emphasizes the call to ignite passion and desire
Come on baby light my fire, light my fire
-And her love like golden lace, filled my world of inner space
Her love, described as golden lace, fills the inner world with radiant colors
With the colors of her glowing face, it was rapture, in her fire
A state of ecstasy depicted, experiencing rapture in the fire of her presence
And all above us, a sparrow choir, sang
Overhead, sparrows continue to sing, reinforcing the message of desire
This is your desire, your desire
Repetition underscores the strength of the desire being expressed
This is your desire, your desire
-Now you're standing right in front of me, and you stay reluctantly
Addressing the present reality, the singer acknowledges the person before them
I'm a stranger with some crazy dream, but I swear, I swear it's true
The singer, feeling like a stranger, insists on the truth of their intense dream
And if you'll stay awhile, then I can show you
An invitation to stay longer, promising to reveal the depth of their desire
You are my desire, my desire
Emphasizing the person's significance as the singer's ultimate desire
You are my desire, my desire
-In the quiet of my dreams, like an angel without wings
Reiteration of the dream's tranquility and the angelic presence without wings
You floated through the forest greens
The enchanting vision of her continues through the green forest
While my heart-strings, played higher and higher
Repeating the emotional crescendo represented by heart-strings playing higher
And all around us, a sparrow choir, sang
The sparrows surround, creating a harmonious choir, affirming desire
This is your desire, your desire
Reiteration of the person as the singer's desire
You are my desire, my desire
Affirmation that the person is indeed the singer's ultimate desire
So won't you let me light your fire, light your fire
A final plea to allow the singer to ignite the person's passion and desire
Let me light your fire
