Dream of You
Heppner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As far as I know doing right
I've always waited for the moment
That you would come through my door
But this brought loneliness so far
I lay my hand onto my heart
Is this the life I want to live
Is this the dream I had of you
But this brought loneliness so far
I lay my hand onto my heart
Is this the life I want to live
Is this the dream I had of you
The dream I had of you
The dream I had of you
Now I'm standing here alone
Waiting on my own
For something that will fill the emptiness
Inside the moment that you mind
But this is loneliness I know
I lay my hand onto my soul
Is this what life has got to give
Is this the dream I had of you
The dream I had of you
But this is loneliness I know
I lay my hand onto my soul
Is this what life has got to give
Is this the dream
The dream I had of you
The lyrics to Heppner's "Dream of You" describe a feeling of loneliness and disappointment in life. The singer has always had a dream of someone special coming into their life and filling the emptiness, but that dream has not yet come true. The song starts off stating that the person has been doing right and waiting for that special someone to come through their door. However, despite waiting for so long, they feel lonely and question the dream they had of this person. The repeated lines "Is this the life I want to live? Is this the dream I had of you?" show the singer's confusion and disillusionment.
The second verse talks about the same feeling of loneliness and waiting, but now the singer questions whether this is what life has to offer. The repeat of "The dream I had of you" provides emphasis and shows that the singer is still holding onto that dream, but it feels distant and unattainable.
Overall, the lyrics to "Dream of You" evoke a sense of longing and emptiness. The singer is questioning their life and wondering if the dream they had of someone coming to fill the void is even realistic. It's a relatable feeling that many people can connect with, and the use of repetition in the chorus reinforces the emotional impact of the song.

This song means a lot to me. Early 2000s, late teens. First love, broken heart, loneliness and new beginnings. 20 years after, I still listen to it. As a photographer, I have to add I love the visuals and DOP work on this piece. Well done Markus Sternberg.
