Keep Your Dreams Alive
De/Vision Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For a place to hide
You will find it
In a dream of pure delight
You feel safety
No fear inside your mind
In your dreamland
You leave all pain behind
Keep dreaming
Keep your dreams alive
Don't stop dreaming
'Cause it beautifies your life
You are waiting
For the rain to fall
Fell the raindrops
After tearing down the wall
You leave sadness
And then you come to bear
Your private paradise
Your dreams will take you there
Keep dreaming
