Lyrics
Wash-n-wear, simplest of things
Referring to simple, low-maintenance things
What can make your heart want to sing
Describing something that brings joy to the heart
Like the day - dc came to town
Recalling a significant day when Washington, D.C. came to town
You were standing there - didn't care
Someone was present, unaffected by the rain
That the rain was pouring down
Despite adverse conditions, the person remained indifferent
Things are better than they seem
Expressing that situations are more positive than they appear
There's no ending to the dream
Belief in an endless dream
We all know that god is good
A universal acknowledgment that God is benevolent
Everything will turn out right
Confidence that everything will work out positively
As we walk into the light
Optimism as one moves towards enlightenment
We all know that god is good
Reiteration of the belief in the goodness of God
Nevermind - if it seems surreal
Dismissal of the surreal; advising not to dwell on feelings
Don't get hung up on what you feel
Encouragement to not be overly concerned with emotions
In my head - I can hear a tune
An imaginary melody in the mind
So much sweeter than a lullaby
Describing the pleasantness surpassing a lullaby
Sleep tight kids 'cause god is good
Reassurance to children that God is good, ensuring peaceful sleep
And
Transition to the next part of the narrative
Things are better than they seem
Reiteration of the positivity in situations
There's no ending to the dream
Belief in an everlasting dream, echoing earlier sentiments
We all know that god is good
Confirmation of the goodness of God
Everything will turn out right
Reaffirmation that everything will be alright
As we walk into the light
Continued optimism while moving towards enlightenment
We all know that god is good
Restating the belief in the goodness of God
I should choose the words I say
Awareness of the importance of choosing words carefully
And the message I convey
Emphasizing the need for clear communication
I'll make it clear - so don't get me wrong
Avoiding misunderstandings; reinforcing positivity
Things are better than they seem
Reiteration that situations are more positive than perceived
There's no ending to the dream
Belief in an unending dream; echoes earlier sentiments
We all know that god is good
Reaffirmation of the goodness of God
Everything will turn out right
Confidence that everything will turn out positively
As we walk into the light
Optimism as one moves towards enlightenment; echoes earlier lines
We all know that god is good
Final reiteration of the belief in the goodness of God
