California Dreaming
DJ Sammy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been for a walk on a winter's day
I'd be safe and warm if I was in L.A.
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
Stopped in to a church I passed along the way
Well I got down on my knees and I pretend to pray
You know the preacher liked the cold
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
California dreamin' on such a winter's
California dreamin' on such a winter's
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray
I've been for a walk on a winter's day
If I didn't tell her I could leave today
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
California dreamin' on such a winter's
California dreamin' on such a winter's
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
On such a winter's day
California dreamin' on such a winter's
California dreamin' on such a winter's
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
The lyrics to DJ Sammy's song "California Dreamin" tell the story of someone who is feeling trapped and discontent by their current surroundings, and how they long to escape to the sunny state of California. The opening line "All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray" sets the tone for the song and conveys the feeling of a cold, dreary winter's day. The lyrics then describe the singer going for a walk and feeling that they would be safe and warm if they were in Los Angeles. This can be interpreted as not only a literal desire to be in a warmer climate, but also a metaphorical longing for a more comfortable and peaceful state of mind.
The second verse describes the singer stopping in a church and pretending to pray. This could be seen as an attempt to find solace or guidance in their life. The lyrics also mention the preacher liking the cold and "knowing" that the singer is going to stay. This line can be interpreted in several ways - the preacher may be aware of the singer's distress and is offering support or the singer may feel trapped and unable to escape their current situation.
The chorus repeats the line "California dreamin' on such a winter's day" multiple times, emphasizing the singer's deep desire to escape their current reality and enter a dream-like state of mind. The song ends on this same note, repeating the chorus several times.
Overall, DJ Sammy's "California Dreamin" can be interpreted as a commentary on the human desire for escape and the search for a better life. The song conveys a sense of yearning and hopefulness, as well as the frustration that can come with feeling trapped in one's current circumstances.
