Runaway Dream
John De Sohn feat. Eric Turner Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I wake up, in the morning
I have feber
And the sun is going up beside me
I can feel her
I′m beileve in
I'm almost freeze
So I hit the road
On my basket cage

When I found myself
That something is a friend of my
The heaven mean
She′s the dream
I am almost freeze

O-on the edge
O-on the edge
O-on the edge
She's the runaway dream
O-on the edge
O-on the edge
O-on the edge

You're a runaway dream

So I lay me down
And I′m looking up
In the tall rise
I see many dreams
And I tell her
That inside me
I beileve in
I′m almost freeze
So I hit the road
On my basket cage
When I found myself
That something is a friend of my
You've done it to me

And she′s the dream
And I'm almost freeze

O-on the edge
O-on the edge
O-on the edge
She′s the runaway dream
O-on the edge

O-on the edge

O-on the edge
You're a runaway dream
Runaway dreeeeeeeam...

It′s a runaway dream
O-ooooooooh

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of John De Sohn feat. Eric Turner's "Runaway Dream" tell a story about a person who wakes up in the morning with a fever and sees the sun rising. While on the road, he perceives something that is a friend of his, almost like a dream. He is freezing and sees many dreams, but there's one dream that is running away from him, and she's the runaway dream. In the end, he lies down and looks up in the tall rise; he sees many dreams and tells the runaway dream that he believes in her, and she has done something to him.

The song can be interpreted in many ways, but it seems to be telling a story about someone who is looking for something that he can't find. The runaway dream could be seen as a person or a goal that is constantly out of reach. The lyrics are open to interpretation, and the melody helps to create a dreamlike and contemplative atmosphere, perfectly suitable for the song's theme.
