Silver's (?) bright we be flying high
It's just a dream it's just a dream
It's just a dream and we're all dreaming

It's just a dream it's just a dream
It's just a dream and we're all dreaming
'snow joke
"He taught me to sing a song. If you want to hear it, I can sing it for you." (a sample from Stanley Kubrick and Arthur C. Clarke's film 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY)
from on the ground to overhead
No space between nothing to fear
Don't take a chance just come with me
We'll hold hands and you will see
it's no joke
The lyrics of the song "Snow" by Ambient Lounge (Sonis.r) appear to paint a dream-like experience where the singer is flying high in the sky, possibly on a plane or in a dream. The use of the phrase "Silver's bright" could mean that the moon or stars are shining brightly in the sky. The repeated line "It's just a dream and we're all dreaming" emphasizes that this experience may not be real and that the singer is aware of it.
The lyrics take a darker turn in the second verse where a young boy falls to the ground and spills his "little seed," possibly meaning that he hurt himself or lost something important. The singer again emphasizes that this event may just be a dream but acknowledges that we are all dreaming together.
The song includes a sample from Stanley Kubrick's film 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY where a character says, "He taught me to sing a song. If you want to hear it, I can sing it for you." This adds to the dream-like quality of the song and could imply that the singer is sharing a song they learned from someone else.
Some possible interpretations of the song's lyrics could be that it's about the surreal nature of dreaming or about learning from others and passing on that knowledge. The line "it's no joke" could also be seen as a warning to take life seriously, even if it feels like a dream.
