Rêverie
First State Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

From the stage
I see you
In the shadows, staring into space
I'm alone, peddling poems
And the stage lights break across your face

Reverie, reverie you are all I need
Suddenly suddenly only silence sounds inside
Could it be could it be all that I've ever wanted
To be free, to be free with you standing by my side

In the dark
I feel you,
Move in circles, circling the space
When you speak




You flicker your eyelids
And your green eyes glance over my face

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to First State feat. Sarah Howells's song Reverie depict a performer on stage, who is caught off guard by a person in the shadows staring at them, while they are performing. Despite being alone, the performer continues to deliver their poetry, and the stage lights highlight the person's features as they observe from the darkness. The lyrics then touch on the notion of reverie, as the performer expresses the idea that the person in the shadows is all they need, and suddenly, silence surrounds the space. The performer contemplates whether or not the person in the shadows is all they have wanted, and if standing by their side would be the ultimate freedom. The second verse furthers this notion, as the performer notes that they can feel the person's presence in the darkness, moving in circles around the space. When the person speaks, they flicker their eyelids, and their green eyes glance over the performer's face, adding to the allure of their presence.


The lyrics to Reverie offer an insightful look into the idea of infatuation and the power of attraction. The performer is clearly drawn to the person in the shadows, and despite performing in front of a crowd, they are the only thing the performer seems to focus on. The song also touches on the idea of freedom and being truly free when standing beside the person you love. It is an emotional song with deep and thought-provoking lyrics that resonate with the listener.

` Tradução Português 》》》
........Do palco, vejo você,
nas sombras olhando para o espaço,
estou sozinha, vendendo poemas,
e as luzes do palco atravessam seu rosto...

No escuro, eu sinto você,
se mexa em círculos, circulando o espaço,
quando você fala, você pisca as pálpebras,
e seus olhos verdes olham pro meu rosto

....Devaneio, devaneio,
você é tudo que eu preciso,
de repente, de repente apenas o silêncio soa por dentro,
poderia ser, poderia ser tudo o que eu sempre quis,
ser livre, ser livre com você ao meu lado.

Thinking about Zyzz every time I listen to this song... tried once, midnight out completely alone in the middle of the park behind my house. Stars and goosebumps I felt like he was next to me saying that I was going to make it... gone but never forgotten if he lives in the heart of people like us. And I’m sure I’m a going to be the best version I can be, I already did once. 🙏🏼 RIP Aziz thanks for the motivation ❤️❤️

Reverie, reverie you’re all I need
Suddenly, suddenly only silence sounds inside
Could it be, could it be all that I’ve ever wanted
To be free, to be free with you standing by my side :)
