Dream On
♥Glee Cast Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You say you want your freedom
Well, who am I to keep you down?
It's only right that you should
Play the way you feel it
Listen carefully to the sound
Of your loneliness
In the stillness of remembering
What you had (lonely)
And what you lost (ooh)
And what you had (ooh)
Oh, and what you lost (ooh)
Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
I say, women they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know
You'll know
Now here I go again, I see, the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself
It's only me who wants to wrap around your dreams and
Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?
Dreams of loneliness
Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering
What you had (lonely)
And what you lost (ooh)
And what you had (and what you had)
Oh, and what you lost (and what you lost)
Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
I say, women they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know
Oh, thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
I say, women they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know
You will know
You will know
Hey, yeah, yeah, you'll know
The lyrics of Glee Cast's song Dream On speak to the universal human experience of loss and longing. At the start of the song, the singer acknowledges their partner's desire for freedom, and the fact that they can't and shouldn't be forced to stay. The repetition of "what you had, oh, what you lost" speaks to the pain of regret and the feeling of wanting to hold onto something that's slipping away. The imagery of loneliness "driving you mad" pairs with the heartbeat metaphor to describe the powerful emotional response to loss.
The chorus of "thunder only happens when it's raining" and "players only love you when they're playing" reflects the singer's jaded outlook on love and relationships. It's a reminder that things are not always as they seem and that people are not always honest about their intentions. The final lines of the song "have you any dreams you'd like to sell?" feels like a plea for connection and hope, despite the pain of loss that runs throughout the lyrics.

@@mayajj0 Souls, OUT THERE, we all are after FALSE LOVE.
Mankind has given LOVE a meaning it NEVER HAD.
The way many see love, as sex and kisses and hugs, lust, fornication, abusing one another, homosexuality.
LOVE NEVER WAS THAT!
LOVE IS LAYING DOWN YOUR LIFE FOR YOUR LOVED ONES AND GIVING OUT RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT.
John 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
John 7:24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
Many are after false love, IT IS TRAGIC.
This world, CARES NOT!
(Have ears hich can hear)
Take a listen what kind of stories people truly tell:
- INSANELY EVIL
- HORRIFIC
Souls, who give “wonderful stories” are often:
- in fear
- deceived
- drugged up
CARE
LOVE
LIFE
IS FOUND ONLY IN JESUS CHRIST!
(Karma = the righteous JUDGMENT OF GOD. Read the bible, it is filled with stories of souls who got "karma". Each of them met their death, as they turned their back to GOD and went and served BAAL. )

This was never the way I planned
Not my intention
I got so brave, drink in hand
Lost my discretion
It's not what I'm used to
Just wanna try you on
I'm curious for you
Caught my attention
I kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chap stick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don't mean I'm in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
I liked it
No, I don't even know your name
It doesn't matter
You're my experimental game
Just human nature
It's not what, good girls do
Not how they should behave
My head gets so confused
Hard to obey
I kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chap stick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don't mean I'm in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
I liked it
Us girls we are so magical
Soft skin, red lips, so kissable
Hard to resist so touchable
Too good to deny it
Ain't no big deal, it's innocent
I kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chap stick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don't mean I'm in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
I liked it

I just love how Finn look like a supportive boyfriend and a confused boyfriend at the same time like "Did she cheated me with Santana?"
and also the power that they hold
And Klaine being proud parents >>
