Hope
As One feat. Jinadu Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Like I did it before,
Why did it all have to change,
I know nothing no more,
(Living on hopes and dreams)
I get all my promises,
I kept you deep in my heart,
You have won my feelings,
My hopes and dreams,
Left without a meaning,
I am lost and blind,
With no change of mind,
What is there left to do
If I knew that you were mine,
I´d keep a lock on my heart,
I keep you warm with my delight,
I´d know, we´d never part
Hopes and dreams,
(They died without your love),
They let my heart on fire,
Hopes and dreams,
Were build upon secrets,
Now I´m waiting now,
For your love
Are flowing with the wind,
Like a turbo going stronger,
Hopes and dreams,
Were build upon secrets,
Now I´m waiting now,
For your love
The opening lyrics of "Hope" by As One featuring Jinadu speak to a longing to reconnect with a lost love. The lines "If I could only speak to you, like I did it before / Why did it all have to change, I know nothing no more" convey a sense of regret and confusion. The singer wishes for things to go back to the way they were before, but recognizes that something has fundamentally shifted. They are living "on hopes and dreams," clinging to the idea that things can be restored to their former state of happiness.
The second verse continues this theme of longing and uncertainty. The singer has "kept you deep in my heart," but now their feelings have been won over by the lost love. They feel lost and blind, unsure of what to do next. The lines "If I knew that you were mine / I'd keep a lock on my heart" suggest that the singer has been hurt in the past and is hesitant to open up again. However, they still hold onto the hope that their dreams can be realized, and that they can find love again.
Overall, "Hope" speaks to the universal experience of longing for connection and fearing vulnerability. The lyrics are poetic and emotive, conveying a sense of yearning with their repetition of the phrase "hopes and dreams." The song is a beautiful expression of the human desire for love and companionship.
Line by Line Meaning
If I could only speak to you,
I wish I could talk to you like I easily did in the past,
Like I did it before,
Like how we did it effortlessly in the old times,
Why did it all have to change,
I wonder why everything had to turn out differently,
I know nothing no more,
I don't understand the current situation anymore,
(Living on hopes and dreams)
But I'm trying to hold on, hoping and dreaming that things will turn out fine.
I get all my promises,
I made a lot of commitments and vows,
I kept you deep in my heart,
You have a special place in my heart,
But now you won,
However, you have triumphed over me,
You have won my feelings,
I have no control over my emotions anymore,
My hopes and dreams,
The things that I was longing and aspiring for,
Left without a meaning,
Now seem to be pointless,
I am lost and blind,
I'm feeling disoriented and helpless,
With no change of mind,
And I don't see any way out of this,
What is there left to do
What other options do I have.
If I knew that you were mine,
If I was sure that you fully belonged to me,
I´d keep a lock on my heart,
I would protect my heart from any possible harm,
I keep you warm with my delight,
I make you happy and content,
I´d know, we´d never part
And I would feel confident that we would always be together.
Hopes and dreams,
The things that kept me going,
(They died without your love),
Unfortunately, they faded and vanished without your affection,
They let my heart on fire,
They once kindled a passionate fire within my heart,
Were build upon secrets,
They were founded on secrets and private wishes,
Now I´m waiting now,
But now, I'm just waiting,
For your love
Hoping that I will receive your love in return.
Are flowing with the wind,
My hopes and dreams are fleeting and changeable,
Like a turbo going stronger,
But sometimes they surge and become more intense,
Hopes and dreams,
The things that inspire me and give me direction,
Were build upon secrets,
Were founded on my deepest desires and wishes,
Now I´m waiting now,
But now, I'm just waiting,
For your love
Hoping that I will receive your love soon.
