Dale Dan Tony Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I'm not around
Who will be there woken
As you fall asleep into a dreamland?
I'm wishin' on a star
Wonderin' where you are, my love

When I'm not around
Who will be there woken
As you fall asleep into a dreamland?
I'm wishin' on a star
Wonderin' where you are, my love

When I'm not around
Who will be there woken
As you fall asleep into a dreamland?
I'm wishin' on a star
Wonderin' where you are, my love

When I'm not around

When I'm not around
Who will be there woken
As you fall asleep into a dreamland?
I'm wishin' on a star
Wonderin' where you are, my love

When I'm not around
Who will be there woken
As you fall asleep into a dreamland?
I'm wishin' on a star
Wonderin' where you are, my love

When I'm not around
Who will be there woken
As you fall asleep into a dreamland?
I'm wishin' on a star
Wonderin' where you are, my love

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Dale Dan Tony's song Dreamland express the feelings of longing and separation experienced by the singer when they are away from their loved one. The repeated lines "When I'm not around/Who will be there woken/As you fall asleep into a dreamland?" convey a sense of concern and worry about whether their partner feels lonely or misses them when they are not there. The use of the phrase "dreamland" suggests a place of peace and contentment, but the singer is unsure whether their absence disrupts this peaceful state or not. The line "I'm wishin' on a star/Wonderin' where you are, my love" further emphasizes the sense of uncertainty and longing that permeates throughout the song.


The repetition of the same verse and chorus throughout the song, without any variation, reinforces the sense of ongoing separation and worry that the singer experiences. The use of a simple and melodic tune, coupled with the lyrics, creates a nostalgic and melancholic mood. The song is a poignant reminder of the challenges of maintaining emotional connections when physical distance exists.
