Don't Let the Dreamers Take You Away
Delphic Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh no, don't let the dreamers
Come and take you away
Oh no, don't let the dreamers
Come and take you away
To beat the feeling, of another tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow

I hear the beats surrender
I hear the beats surrender
You're just a numb start
Such to know that and the young heart
But I once was just like you
And the dreamers took me too

Oh no, don't let the dreamers
Come and take you away
Oh no, don't let the dreamers
Come and take you away
To beat the feeling, of another tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow

Running like the beats, always
Running in like the fields, always
Running like the beats, always
Running in like the fields, always

Yeah, I'm running like the fields

Don't let the dreamers, take you away




Don't let the dreamers, don’t let the dreamers
Take you away
