Painted Dreams
Chasing Dreams: Rediscovering the Canvas of Life
Lyrics
We painted dreams and how we wished they’d all come true
We expressed our aspirations through painted dreams, hoping they would come true.
We hoped for more than pallet brush and canvas could ever prove
We desired more than what art tools could convey, seeking profound fulfillment.
Well maybe we could get our hopes up one more time
Considering the possibility of rekindling hope once again.
We’re not the kids we were that doesn’t mean we should be blind
Although we've matured, it doesn't justify overlooking reality; we should remain perceptive.
Chasing the painting of a dream
Actively pursuing the realization of a dream through creative endeavors.
Chasing the only thing that ever made sense to me
Seeking the one thing that has always made sense and brought meaning to life.
Oh, it is hard but it is easy
Acknowledging the difficulty yet recognizing the inherent ease in pursuing one's dreams.
It might seem wrong but it’s so right
Even if it appears unconventional, it feels right at a deeper level.
So let us conjure up the feeling
Encouraging the revival of a nostalgic emotion and recreating past dreams.
And paint the dreams we used to paint tonight
Revisiting the act of painting dreams as a collective activity.
We flew so high, we didn’t know limits existed then
Recalling a time of boundless optimism, unaware of limitations.
‘Til we got older and woke up and stopped playing pretend
As maturity sets in, the phase of make-believe ends, and reality takes over.
Well what’s more real than how I feel and how I felt back then
Emphasizing the authenticity of emotions and experiences from the past.
I will dust my paint and brushes off
Committing to rediscovering artistic tools and reengaging in creative dreaming.
And I will dream again
Expressing a determination to dream once again despite challenges.
Chasing the painting of a dream
Actively pursuing the realization of a dream through creative endeavors (repeated).
Chasing the only thing that ever made sense to me
Seeking the one thing that has always made sense and brought meaning to life (repeated).
Oh, it is hard but it is easy
Acknowledging the difficulty yet recognizing the inherent ease in pursuing one's dreams (repeated).
It might seem wrong but it’s so right
Even if it appears unconventional, it feels right at a deeper level (repeated).
So let us conjure up the feeling
Encouraging the revival of a nostalgic emotion and recreating past dreams (repeated).
And paint the dreams we used to paint tonight
Revisiting the act of painting dreams as a collective activity (repeated).
Oh, it is hard but it is easy
Acknowledging the difficulty yet recognizing the inherent ease in pursuing one's dreams (repeated).
It might seem wrong but it ‘s so right
Even if it appears unconventional, it feels right at a deeper level (repeated).
So let us conjure up the feeling
Encouraging the revival of a nostalgic emotion and recreating past dreams (repeated).
And paint the dreams that used to make us feel so alive
Committing to rediscovering artistic tools and reengaging in creative dreaming (repeated).
