In Our Dreams
Emily Loizeau Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's a magical affair
We are carried in the air
In our dreams

And they take us by the hand
To the place where they stand
In our dreams
And they call us by our names
And they say we haven't changed
In our dreams

And we know that they don't lie
If they did they wouldn't cry
In our dreams, in our dreams, in our dreams

And we keep them in our heart
Only sleep keeps us apart
And the wind fills our sail
And the wind fills our sail

Sometimes they remain in silence
Sometimes they provoke the violence
Of our dreams

We are weak and they are strong
And they can carry us along
In our dreams

And in everything they say
There's a rule that we obey
In our dreams

We cherish each an every word
And then we lose them and it hurts
But we know that they live
In our dreams

And we keep them in our heart
Only sleep keeps us apart
And the wind fills our sail
And the wind fills our sail

We are the sailors of the dark
We are the sailors of the dark

It's a magical affair
When they whisper in the air
In our dreams

And the stories that they tell
We don't know but we know well
In our dreams

And they call us by our names
And they say that we have changed
In our dreams

And we need to stay together
'Cause their words we have to gather
In our dreams, in our dreams, in our dreams

And we keep them in our heart
Only sleep keeps us apart




And the wind fills our sail
And the wind fills our sail

I discovered Emily on a The Word CD I bought from a charity shop singing L'autre Bout de Monde. I think she's an amazing artist! Her songs and videos are wonderful and I wish she was better known in Britain!
