Together in electric dreams 2
Giorgio Moroder Ft. Philip Oakey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I only knew you for a while
I never saw your smile
Till it was time to go
Time to go away (time to go away)

Sometimes its hard to recognise
But comes as a surprise
And its too late
It's just to late to stay (to late to stay)

[Chorus]
We'll always be together
However far it seems (love never ends)
We'll always be together
Together in electric dreams

Because of the friendship that you gave
Has taught me to be brave
No matter where I go
I'll never find a better prize (find a better prize)

Though your miles and miles away
I see you everyday
I don't have to try
I just close my eyes
I close my eyes


[Chorus]

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Together in Electric Dreams" by Giorgio Moroder & Philip Oakey depict the bittersweet experience of parting ways with someone you've grown attached to. It's a powerful story of an intense connection that came too late to flourish into something more. The singer laments how he never got to know his companion fully before it was time to leave. And though it was hard to recognize their bond, when it finally hit him, it was too late to do anything about it. The chorus talks about their love that never ends and how they'll always be together, even if they're miles away.


The song is a beautiful reminder of the impact that even fleeting relationships can have on our lives. It speaks to the universal feeling of regret, wishing we could have had more time with someone special. The lyrics also reflect on the idea that true love is timeless and distance can't break it. The song paints a vivid picture of the complex emotions we feel when we have to say goodbye to people we care about, and how their influence stays with us forever.
