Dragonfly
Soaring Dreams: Unveiling the Symbolism in Yngwie Malmsteen's Dragonfly
Lyrics
I'd rather live than just imagine
I prefer experiencing life rather than just imagining it.
Don't think there is a way around
There may not be an easy solution or shortcut.
And if I fail I'll still be standing
Even if I face failure, I will remain resilient and standing.
With my feet firmly onthe ground.
I am grounded, rooted in reality.
Through my window from ths sky
Through my window, a lullaby flows from the sky.
Flows a lullaby
Symbolic description of a tranquil and calming atmosphere.
Someone's waiting in my dream
Someone is waiting for me in my dreams.
Taking me to places I've never seen
Taking me to unexplored places in my dreams.
If I had some wings then I could fly (Dragonfly)
If I had wings, I could fly like a dragonfly.
In my dreams
Expressing the desire to fly in dreams.
I am the Dragonfly (Dragonfly)
Identifying with the freedom and agility of a dragonfly.
I guess I always will be searching
Continuous search for something, possibly meaning or purpose.
I live and learn from my mistakes
Learning and evolving from past mistakes.
And all the love that I'm expecting
Expecting love in proportion to the love given.
Is equal to the love I make.
Emphasizing reciprocity in love.
Little dreamer when evening falls. Shadows fall
Referring to oneself as a little dreamer and the onset of evening.
Bring some honey for my soul
Seeking solace and nourishment for the soul as shadows fall.
Take me to the places I've never been
Desiring to be taken to uncharted territories.
If I had some wings then I could fly (Dragonfly)
Reiteration of the longing for wings to fly like a dragonfly.
In my dreams I am the Dragonfly (Dragonfly).
Reaffirmation of the dream of being a dragonfly in the dream state.
