Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I walked with you once upon a dream
I know you,
That look in your eyes is so familiar a gleam
And I know its true
That visions are seldom all they seem
But if i know you
I know what you'll do
Once upon a night,
I dreamed we'd be together
In love forever.
Once upon a night,
I was wishing for a never,
A never ending.
Once upon a night
Once upon a time
Once upon a wish
Once upon a dream.

I know you
I am familiar with you and know who you are
I walked with you once upon a dream
I had a dream where I spent time with you
That look in your eyes is so familiar a gleam
I recognize the expression in your eyes from somewhere before
And I know its true
I am certain about this fact
That visions are seldom all they seem
Dreams and imagined scenarios are often not entirely accurate
But if i know you
Given my understanding of who you are
I know what you'll do
I can predict how you will act
You'll love me at once, like what you did once upon a dream
You will feel an immediate attraction towards me, just as in my dream
Once upon a night, I dreamed we'd be together
I had a fantasy during a particular evening that we would be united
In love forever
Our love would continue for the rest of our lives
I was wishing for a never, a never ending
At that time, I hoped for a love that would never conclude
Once upon a night, once upon a time, once upon a wish, once upon a dream
All of these fitting phrases relate to my idealized fantasies and aspirations when it comes to love
