Kinderszenen Op. 15: Traumerei
Kosice Philharmonic Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I never thought that it could be
The way it stands right now
Emotions running high
Every night I wish that I
Could tell you how I feel
Those words are here in my heart
Oh but there is just one missing part
How to put it together
How to say it right
And let you know that
Every night
I'll be dreamin'
Dreamin'
Hoping baby you will be there
I'll be dreamin'
Dreamin'
Hoping baby you will be there
Let me take time out
To try and find out
If this could be real
Cause reality scares me
I've been living a fantasy
How should I feel
Those words are here in my heart
Oh but there is just one missing part
How to put it together
How to say it right
And let you know that
Every night
I'll be dreamin'
Dreamin'
Hoping baby you will be there
I'll be dreamin'
Dreamin'
Hoping baby you will be there
The song "Träumerei," also known as Dreaming or Reverie, is a beautifully poignant piece that captures the essence of yearning and longing for someone. The song portrays the emotions of a person who is unable to express their love for someone they deeply care about. The lyrics encapsulate the feeling of being lost in a world of daydreams, unsure of how to bring those dreams to fruition. The song expresses the singer's deep desire to convey their emotions to the person they love, but they're unable to find the courage to do so.
The melody is a perfect accompaniment to the emotional depth of the lyrics, with its soothing and majestic quality that evokes feelings of nostalgia and sentimentality. The heartbeat-like quality of the rhythm is a representation of the singer's yearning for their love interest. The repetitive pattern of the lyrics underlines the constancy of their feelings and reinforces the singer's steadfast hope that their love interest will reciprocate. The song is not only about the singer's desires but also touches upon the fear and uncertainty they experience when confronted with reality.

For the life of me
Despite my best efforts
I never thought that it could be
I didn't believe this could happen
The way it stands right now
As things are at this moment
Emotions running high
Feeling very emotional
Every night I wish that I
Each night I desire to
Could tell you how I feel
To communicate my emotions to you
Those words are here in my heart
I have the words I want to say inside me
Oh but there is just one missing part
But there's something important that's not there
How to put it together
How to express it correctly
How to say it right
How to communicate it accurately
And let you know that
And make you aware that
Every night
Each and every evening
I'll be dreamin'
I will be dreaming
Dreamin'
Fantasizing
Hoping baby you will be there
Wishing that you'll be present
Let me take time out
Allow me to spare some time
To try and find out
To attempt to discover
If this could be real
If this could be authentic
Cause reality scares me
Because reality frightens me
I've been living a fantasy
I have been living in a dream world
How should I feel
What is the appropriate way for me to feel?
I'll be dreamin'
I will be dreaming
Dreamin'
Fantasizing
Hoping baby you will be there
Wishing that you'll be present
