Yesterday's Dreams
Chasing Yesterday's Dreams: Embracing Life's Steppingstones
Lyrics
I'm still dreaming yesterday's dreams
I continue to dream the dreams of the past.
Still believe in yesterday's dreams
I still have faith in the dreams of yesterday.
I still need them all yesterday's dreams
I still require all the dreams from yesterday.
Life is not a hill that must be climbed
Life is not an uphill struggle that must be conquered.
It's not a race that must be won
Life is not a competition that must be won.
Once in a while become that child
Occasionally, revert to a childlike state, carefree and joyful.
Playful wild and full of fun
Be playful, wild, and embrace fun.
That danced and splashed in muddy pools
Recall moments of dancing and splashing in muddy pools.
Showed no respect for Sunday shoes
Showed no regard for formalities, like preserving Sunday shoes.
I'm still dreaming yesterday's dreams
Continuing to dream the dreams from the past.
Still believe in yesterday's dreams
Maintaining belief in the dreams of yesterday.
I still need them all yesterday's dreams
Expressing a persistent need for all the dreams from yesterday.
If your dreams lie on the other side
When faced with a choice between dreams, unsure whether to pursue or abandon.
To stay or go you can't decide
The struggle between staying and leaving, a decision not easily made.
But standing still you'll never know
Staying still prevents discovering what lies beneath life's surface.
What lies beneath this rivers flow
The uncertainty of the unknown beneath the river's flow.
Just out of sight but there below
Hidden realities just out of sight but existing below the surface.
The path of fate
Life's journey represented as steppingstones on the path of fate.
Life's steppingstones
Symbolizing the important milestones in one's life.
I'm still dreaming yesterday's dreams
Continuing to dream the dreams from the past.
Still believe in yesterday's dreams
Maintaining belief in the dreams of yesterday.
I still need them all yesterday's dreams
Expressing a persistent need for all the dreams from yesterday.
Sometimes you feel you never will achieve
Sometimes feeling that certain goals may never be achieved.
Many things you may have once believed
Reevaluating beliefs that were once considered attainable.
Were worthwhile schemes or futile hopes
Reflecting on whether past aspirations were worthwhile or futile.
Like a dream in a dream they drift and float
Comparing dreams to a fleeting, ethereal experience that drifts and floats.
Then dissipate in wisps and streams
Like a dream within a dream, dreams dissipate and fade away.
And then they fade they disappear
Gradual disappearance and fading of dreams.
I'm still dreaming yesterday's dreams
Continuing to dream the dreams from the past.
Still believe in yesterday's dreams
Maintaining belief in the dreams of yesterday.
I still need them all yesterday's dreams
Expressing a persistent need for all the dreams from yesterday.
