Wash Away
Rivers of Dreams: Matt Costa's Reflective Journey
Lyrics
Float down stream, rivers of dreams
Metaphorical reference to the journey of life, floating down the stream symbolizes moving through life's experiences and challenges.
Float down stream, catch your wings
Encouragement to embrace opportunities and take flight, suggesting the pursuit of dreams.
Heavens high, so you fly
Reference to the vast possibilities in life, aiming high and reaching for one's aspirations.
Catch your dreams in the sky
Encouraging the listener to chase their dreams and aspirations in the vast expanse of the sky.
But the glaciers have frozen your feet
Obstacles or challenges hindering progress, comparing it to frozen feet.
I can't wait for eternity
Expressing impatience or anticipation for something that seems to take a long time.
And so you watched me wash away
Implies a sense of loss or disappearance, possibly of a relationship or an opportunity.
But maybe we'll catch up someday
Hopeful acknowledgment that there might be a reunion or reconciliation in the future.
Maybe well catch up someday
Reiteration of the hope for a future reunion.
Sun sinks out of view
Describing the end of a day, possibly symbolizing the conclusion of a phase in life.
Stars they shine changing hue
Reference to the changing nature of circumstances, symbolized by the shifting hues of stars.
But bright lights have blinded your sights
Negative impact of external influences or distractions on one's vision or perspective.
They can't adjust when day turns to night
Highlighting the difficulty in adapting to changes, especially when transitioning from day to night.
And so you watched me wash away
Repetition of the idea of loss or fading away, emphasizing a sense of helplessness.
But maybe well catch up someday
Reassurance that there might be a chance to reconnect or reconcile in the future.
The castles we built were so tall
Reflection on ambitious endeavors that may have resulted in disappointment or setback.
They only left us further to fall
Acknowledgment that high aspirations can lead to greater challenges and potential pitfalls.
And still I see them far away
Observation of distant memories or past achievements that seem unattainable.
But maybe we'll come back someday
Expressing hope for the possibility of returning to past accomplishments or relationships.
Maybe we'll come back someday
Reiteration of the hope for a future return to past accomplishments or relationships.
Float down stream, rivers of dreams
Repetition of the metaphorical journey down the stream of life.
Float down stream, catch your wings
Repetition of the encouragement to take flight and pursue dreams.
The castles we built were so tall
Recollection of past ambitious endeavors that may have resulted in setbacks.
They only left us further to fall
Reiteration of the idea that lofty goals can lead to greater challenges and setbacks.
And still I see them far away
Observation of distant memories or past achievements that seem unattainable.
Maybe well come back someday

As I watch them wash away
As one watches past accomplishments or relationships fade away, suggesting a sense of loss.
