My Dreams
Lucia Marconi and The Carpool to Nashville Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When the sun goes down another day has gone
I recall the time when I was young
I can see the lights so far away
Of the little town beyond the waves
And the old great house white and gray
I tried so hard to get by on my own
I've been told, some time ago
This life of yours, you come and go
Never take responsability
Never mind to realize
Neither purpose nor design
I've been searching for so long
What's the purpose of my soul
I tried so hard to get by on my own
'til I found that man, white-haired and fair
He had a nice large beam from ear to ear
He said: life is kidding, enjoy every day
Just choose your role and start to play
'cos this world is love
There's nothing else to say
How sweet my dreams are on my way to home
It's nice and easy rely on this love
The song "My Dreams" by Lucia Marconi and The Carpool to Nashville begins with a nostalgic mood as the singer recalls their youth and the little town in which they lived. The lights and the old great house bring back fond memories, but also emphasize the distance between the singer's current life and their past. The themes of longing and homesickness continue throughout the song, especially when the singer notes how far their dreams are from their way back home.
The second stanza takes a more introspective turn as the singer reflects on their struggle to find their purpose in life. They mention how they've been told to live without responsibility or regard for their place in the world. It's a stark contrast to the advice the singer receives later in the song from an older man who tells them to enjoy every day and play their role in the world. This message emphasizes the importance of love over anything else, encapsulated in the lines "cos this world is love/There's nothing else to say."
Overall, "My Dreams" is a song about the journey of self-discovery and reflection. The singer's feelings of homesickness and search for purpose are relatable to anyone who has ever felt uncertain about their place in the world. The song encourages the listener to focus on love and enjoyment in life, rather than worrying about responsibility or societal expectations.

When the sun goes down another day has gone
Time is passing and another day has ended
I recall the time when I was young
I remember my youth fondly
I can see the lights so far away
I can see lights far in the distance

There is a small town beyond the waves
And the old great house white and gray
There is an old great house that is white and gray

My dreams seem far from where I am heading
