Dream On
Echoes of Life: Unveiling the Reflections in 'Dream On' by Kelly Sweet
Lyrics
Every time I look in the mirror
Reflection on self-examination whenever the singer looks at herself/himself in the mirror
All these lines on my face getting clearer
Visible signs of aging or experiences that have left a mark, becoming more evident over time
The past is gone
Acknowledgment that the past is over and unchangeable
It went by, like dusk to dawn
Reference to the passing of time, implying how quickly time goes by
Isn't that the way
Suggesting a common or universal truth or occurrence
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay
Everyone has their own obligations or payments to make in life
I know it's everybody's sin
Admission that making mistakes or failing is a part of everyone's life
You got to lose to know how to win yeah
Understanding that experiencing loss is necessary to appreciate winning
Sing with me, sing for the year
Encouragement to sing symbolically for the passing year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tears
To sing for both the joy and sorrow experienced in that year
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Invitation to join in singing, even if it's just for the present moment
Maybe tomorrow, the good lord will take you away
Suggesting the uncertainty of the future, emphasizing the importance of seizing the moment
Oh
Expressing an emotional response
Sing with me, sing for the year
Reiteration to sing for the passing year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
To sing for both the joy and sorrow experienced in that year
Sing with me, if it's just for today
To invite singing for the present moment, emphasizing its fleeting nature
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
Reinforcing the uncertainty of the future and the importance of seizing opportunities now
Dream on, dream on, dream on
Encouragement to dream persistently until dreams are realized
Dream until your dreams come true
-Dream on, dream on, dream on
-Dream until your dream comes through
-Dream on, dream on, dream on
-Dream on, dream on
-Dream on, dream on
-Every time I look in the mirror
Reflecting again on the passing and unchangeable nature of the past when looking in the mirror
The past is gone
