Where Dreams Come To Die
Journey of Dreams: Willie Nelson & Merle Haggard's Poignant Reflection
Lyrics
This is where dreams come to die
This place symbolizes the end or failure of dreams.
This is where dreams come to die
Reiteration of the idea that dreams meet their demise here.
Then they fly back to heaven
After failing, dreams return to heaven.
But this is where dreams come to die
Emphasizes that this location is where dreams come to an end.
They're fun when you dream them
Dreams are enjoyable during the imagining phase.
Everyone is laughing at you
Suggests that others mock or doubt one's dreams.
And it's fun, watching them wonder
Enjoyment in observing skeptics and doubters when dreams seem plausible.
And all of the dreams are coming true
During this phase, dreams seem achievable and are coming true.
But this is where dreams come to die
Reiterating that this place signifies the death of dreams.
This is where dreams come to die
Repeated emphasis on dreams meeting their end here.
Then they fly back to heaven
After failing, dreams return to heaven.
But this is where dreams come to die
Stressing that this location marks the conclusion of dreams.
This world is just a stop over
Life on Earth is just a temporary phase for dreams.
On their journey up to the sky
Acknowledges that Earth is a transient stage in the journey of dreams to the sky (heaven).
And here's to the trip back to heaven
Cheers to the safe return of dreams to heaven.
Maybe be safe as they fly
Wishing for the safety of dreams as they return to heaven.
But this is where dreams come to die
Reiterating that dreams meet their demise at this particular place.
This is where dreams come to die
Repeated emphasis on the idea that dreams end here.
Then they fly back to heaven
After failing, dreams return to heaven.
But this is where dreams come to die
Stressing that this location signifies the conclusion of dreams.
Then they fly back to heaven
Reiteration that after failing, dreams return to heaven.
But this is where dreams come to die
Emphasizes that this place is where dreams ultimately meet their end.
