Hold On
Chasing Dreams in Vienna: A Poetic Journey by Gabriel Denk
Lyrics
Blue eyes, like you only see the rain
Blue eyes, symbolizing sadness or melancholy, reminiscent of rain.
I don't mind you speaking words I'd never say
Acceptance of someone expressing thoughts the speaker wouldn't articulate.
We changed too many quotes from Hemingway
Reference to changing meaningful quotes, possibly indicating a shift in perspectives.
It's a high end movie scene I'd never need
Disinterest in a glamorous or extravagant lifestyle portrayed in movies.
Seven days a week
Repetition of "Seven days a week" may emphasize continuous struggle or monotony.
Hold on, hold on
An urging plea to "Hold on."
Somebody else will come along
Assurance that someone else will enter one's life.
Mmh, mmh four am walking next to your dreams
Describing a late-night walk and contemplation near the dream world.
Vienna has a way of helping people fall into deep
Vienna, a city, is portrayed as a catalyst for profound experiences.
Hold on, hold on
Reiteration of the plea to "Hold on."
Somebody else will write a song
Belief that someone else will express feelings through a song.
Mmh, mmh wasn't hard to forget this place
Reflecting on the ease of forgetting a place.
It was hard just to let you
The difficulty lies not in forgetting the place but in letting go of someone.
Blue eyes, it's like you've never seen the day
Blue eyes again, suggesting perpetual sadness and not seeing the brightness of the day.
Hard to hide you lost your heart along the way
Acknowledging the difficulty of concealing the loss of heart along life's journey.
Standing here with a friend that has no shame
Being in the company of a friend without judgment or embarrassment.
There's a heartache with your name on every vein
Recognition of pain associated with the person, likened to a heartache in every vein.
Your smile still stays the same
Despite hardships, the person's smile remains unchanged.
Hold on, hold on
Repetition of the plea to "Hold on."
Somebody else will come along
Assurance that someone else will enter one's life.
Mmh, mmh four am walking next to your dreams
Describing a late-night walk and contemplation near the dream world.

I've never seen the truth beneath your dreams
Expressing a lack of understanding of the truth behind someone's dreams.
Maybe someday you know what it means
Hopeful anticipation that someday there will be clarity.
Hold on, hold on
