Dreamin'
Malika Tirolien Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I'm staring at a rainbow
Who smiles at me
So gracefully
From where I stand
There's a light, right below me
Made of stars in bloom
Reaching for the moon
Black berries and peaches
Together spending time
As they intertwine
Purple leaves
Take the lead and the wind follows
This is something else
So I ask myself
Am I dreaming?
(Or am I feeling confusion)
I've never seen this world before
If I'm dreaming
(And I' just lost in illusion)
Don't wake me till
Tomorrow
I see
Mother Nature is cared for
She's in exctasy
Breathing easily
I see
Every shape, every color
Of humanity
Shine in equity
When it rains
Every home is a shelter
With open doors
No alarms
Honest hearts
Open arms
Everything is so pure and so simple
Satiated souls
Asking nothing more
Am I dreaming?
(Or am I feeling confusion)
I've never seen this world before
If I'm dreaming
(And I' just lost in illusion)
Don't wake me till
Tomorrow
In Malika Tirolien's song "Dreamin'", the singer finds herself in a dream-like state, gazing at a rainbow and a light made of stars. She describes a world where nature, represented by the blooming clementines, blackberries, and peaches, coexists harmoniously with humanity, represented by different shapes and colors shining in equity. In this world, when it rains, everyone finds shelter with open doors and honest hearts, open arms. The singer questions whether she is dreaming or if this world is just a result of her confusion. She begs not to be woken up, hoping that this place of pure simplicity and goodness can continue to exist.
The lyrics of "Dreamin'" can be interpreted in different ways, but they seem to suggest a desire for a better world, one where people live in harmony with nature and with each other. The rainbow and the light made of stars represent hope and beauty, while the fruits symbolize growth and vitality. The idea of shelter and open doors suggests a community that supports and cares for one another, regardless of their differences. By asking if she is dreaming, the singer is acknowledging the possibility that such a world may not exist in reality, but also expressing the hope that it is possible.
One interesting fact about "Dreamin'" is that it was written by Tirolien herself, who is a singer, songwriter, and composer from Guadeloupe. She has collaborated with many musicians and has won several awards for her work. Another fact is that the song was remixed by the Canadian electronic music duo, Moonstarr, which gave it a new sound and made it more danceable. Additionally, the music video for the song, which was directed by Samuel Crowther, features stunning visuals of nature and people, reinforcing the message of unity and beauty.

I truly LOVED the acoustic version outside. This one has more of a fusion rock feel. The acoustic version was for coffee and croissants by the window.. I just love your voice, your arrangements and your hustle. You rode that SP opportunity to the moon. Keep shining baby girl. Dont let the industry eat you. Eat the industry! Create your own venues and vehicles ! I'm a big (old) fan!
