I Have A Dream
Nohien and Band Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As for me, I love you the same old way.
I guess I'll have to dream the rest,
There'll be no friends waiting to throw shoes and rice
Those heavenly moments will never come twice
I'm thankful for the hours you've blessed,
I guess I'll have to dream the rest.
In the song "I Have A Dream," Nohien and Band sing about a love that is not reciprocated fully by the other person. The singer can see that their partner's heart has gone astray, meaning that they are not as invested in the relationship as they once were. However, the singer still loves their partner in the same old way and holds onto the hope that things will get better.
The lyrics "I guess I'll have to dream the rest" suggest that the singer knows that their situation is unlikely to change. They will have to dream about the happy ending they were hoping for instead of it actually becoming a reality. The lines "There'll be no friends waiting to throw shoes and rice, those heavenly moments will never come twice" further emphasize that the future the singer had imagined for their relationship is unlikely to happen. They will never be able to experience those romantic moments with their partner again, and they know it.
Despite this, the singer is still thankful for the time they had with their partner. The line "I'm thankful for the hours you've blessed" suggests that even if the relationship did not end up where the singer wanted it to, they still value the time and memories that they shared with their partner.
