Dream
Johnson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She's just waiting for the summertime when the weathers fine
She could hitch a ride out of town
And so far away from that low town good for nothing mistake making fool
With excuses like baby that was a long time ago
But that's just a euphemism if you want the truth he was out of control
But a short times just a long time then your mind just won't let it go

Well summer came along and it then was gone and so was she
Not from him because he followed her just to let her know
A dreams a dream
And all this livings so much harder than it seems
But girl don't let your dreams be dreams
You know this livings not so hard as it seems




Don't let your dreams dreams
Your dreams your dreams be dreams

Line by Line Meaning

When you're feelin' blue
Whenever you're feeling sad or depressed


Dream
Think of better things to distract yourself


That's the thing to do
That's the right approach to change your mood


Just watch the smoke rings rise in the air
Observe how smoke rings disappear and manifest to other forms


You'll find your share of memories there
You'll remember some past events and feel better


So dream
Keep up the good work of distraction


When the day is through
Especially when the day has been hard and tiring


Dream
Keep turning to positive thoughts


And they might come true
These thoughts might manifest into reality


Things never are as bad as they seem
Any problem or situation can be viewed differently to gain solutions


So dream, dream, dream
Keep filling your mind with positive thoughts and hope for a better future

Every time when I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The past is gone

And it went by, like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way?
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay

Yeah, I know nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
You got to lose to know how to win

Half my life's in books, written pages
Live and learn from fools and from sages
You know it's true, oh
All the things come back to you

Sing with me, sing for a year
Sing for the laughter, and sing the tear
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away

Yeah, sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, and sing for the tear
Sing it with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away

Dream on
Dream on
Dream on
Dream until the dream come true

Dream on
Dream on
Dream on
Dream until your dream come true

Dream on
Dream on
Dream on
Dream on

Dream on
Dream on
Dream on, ah

Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tear
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away

Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, and sing for the tear
Sing it with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away

Because of you Caleb I accidentally hit G#5 effortlessly thanks to you Bro! Now I confidently sing this masterpiece song...

@thomasvanboening4829

Steven would be proud of this! This is a very VERY tough song to cover. Many have tried, and not many have done as well as this!

@tuspider7892

Yes I agree

@brentowens4337

I remember hearing this guy audition while watching American idol, and from the moment he sang I instantly thought (contest over!) This guy is going to win it! Toward the end when he was singing this song I was pretty much showing the same excitement as the judges when he reached that scream on. And it was clean as all hell! He did this song justice and I love it!🤯😄
