Dreams
Cans Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I saw you one morning in the green longhaired fields in the days of the early may
The dew of the dawn touch my feet with marks upon
From the trees climbed for you that day
We ran on the beach and jumped for fruits we couldn't reach so we laughed when we hit the ground
The summer just faded and we hesitated
Was it really true love we found?
You are my summer dream
You are my summer dream
And my summer dream got ripped up at the seams
Distortion between us avoiding will clean us from this big inflammable fuse
I will not be able, conditions unstable
Am I disharmonic to you?
You are my summer dream
You are my summer dream
And my summer dream got ripped up at the seams
You are my summer dream
You are my summer dream
And my summer dream got ripped up at the seams
You are my summer dream




You are my summer dream
And my summer dream got ripped up so it seems
