Dream On
Embracing Life's Journey: Reflective Wisdom in Song
Lyrics
Every time when I look in the mirror
Reflecting on oneself in the mirror and acknowledging the passage of time.
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The visible signs of aging serve as a reminder of life experiences.
The past is gone
Acknowledging the irreversibility of the past.
And it went by, like dusk to dawn
Comparing the passing of time to the transition from dusk to dawn.
Isn't that the way?
Expressing a philosophical observation about the inevitability of life's challenges.
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay
Recognizing that everyone faces challenges and hardships in life.
Yeah, I know nobody knows
Acknowledging the uncertainty of life's course.
Where it comes and where it goes
Reflecting on the unpredictable nature of life.
I know it's everybody's sin
Describing life as a shared experience of sin or hardship.
You got to lose to know how to win
Suggesting that experiencing loss is essential for understanding how to succeed.
Half my life's in books, written pages
Highlighting the role of literature and personal experiences in shaping one's life.
Live and learn from fools and from sages
Emphasizing the value of learning from both foolish and wise individuals.
You know it's true, oh
Affirming the truth of the preceding statements.
All the things come back to you
Suggesting that one's actions and choices eventually come back to affect them.
Sing with me, sing for a year
Inviting others to sing along, symbolizing a communal experience.
Sing for the laughter, and sing the tear
Encouraging singing for both joy and sorrow.
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Encouraging shared singing for the present moment.
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
Reflecting on the uncertainty of life's duration.
Yeah, sing with me, sing for the year
Reiterating the call for communal singing for a longer period.
Sing for the laughter, and sing for the tear
Emphasizing the dual nature of singing, for joy and sorrow.
Sing it with me, if it's just for today
Encouraging present-time participation in singing.
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
Reflecting on the uncertainty of life's duration.
Dream on
Introducing the central theme of dreaming.
Dream on
Repetition of the encouragement to dream until the dreams come true.
Dream on
-Dream until the dream come true
-Dream on
-Dream on
-Dream on
-Dream until your dream come true
-Dream on
-Dream on
-Dream on
-Dream on
-Dream on
-Dream on
-Dream on, ah
-Sing with me, sing for the year
Reiteration of the call for communal singing, emphasizing the transient nature of life.
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tear
-Sing with me, if it's just for today
-Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
-Sing with me, sing for the year
Final encouragement to sing for the present moment and the uncertainty of the future.
Sing for the laughter, and sing for the tear
-Sing it with me, if it's just for today
-Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
