Dreamed I Was
Embracing Dreams of Infinite Possibilities
Lyrics
This morning I dreamed I was happy,
This morning, the speaker had a dream where she felt happiness.
you were there with me,
In the dream, the person the speaker is addressing was present.
you said that we could be anything,
The addressed person expressed the possibility of them being anything they desire.
anything we want to be.
Emphasizing the freedom to pursue any aspiration.
In that moment I knew to be true
The speaker acknowledges the truth of the dream at that moment.
in that moment I knew it could be,
Reiteration of the belief in the dream's potential.
in that moment I knew it could be
Continued affirmation of the dream's possibility.
if you were there with me.
Highlighting the importance of the addressed person's presence in making the dream real.
Together we floated around,
Together, they float in a serene environment.
the scenery so serene,
Description of the peaceful surroundings.
you held my body high above you,
The addressed person holds the speaker above them.
and still I fell free.
The speaker feels free despite being held, suggesting trust and liberation.
In that moment I knew to be true ,
Reiteration of the belief in the dream's potential.
in that moment I knew it could be,
Continued affirmation of the dream's possibility.
in that moment floating right beside you
In that moment, the speaker envisions being right beside the addressed person.
in that moment I knew it could be.
Affirmation of the potential for the dream to come true.
Then later this morning I got out of bed
A shift to waking reality; the addressed person is not present.
and you were not there with me,
Confirmation of the absence of the person from the dream.
the words that we had spoken,
The words spoken in the dream are fading from memory.
slipping from my memory.
Loss of the dream's details and impact on waking up.
Oh my sweet dream,
The speaker expresses a plea for the dream to stay.
don’t go away.
A plea for the dream not to leave the speaker.
My sweet dream don’t leave me be.
Repetition of the plea for the dream to remain.
All my sweet dreams,
A broader plea for all sweet dreams not to go away.
don’t go away,
Repetition of the plea for sweet dreams to stay.
don’t go away from me.
Emphasis on the emotional attachment to the dreams.
So this evening, I’ll go back to sleep,
Intention to return to sleep in the evening.
this evening I’ll look for you there.
Expressed desire to find the addressed person in the dream again.
This evening I’ll be anything
Anticipation of being anything in the dream during the upcoming evening.
and you could be there with me.
The hope of the addressed person being present in the dream once more.
