Different Dreams
Nouveau Velo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I lift my head and take a look around
I see you next to me
Coming into view
The only way is up
We both know it's true
Can we find a way to get around
You and I have different dreams
We'll meet in the middle so it seems
Close your eyes when you think of me
I'll close mine when I think of you
You turn your life into a song
I'll sing it loud with iron lungs
I'll write your name in the books you've read
To make sure I won't forget
The stars that lit the darkest night
It opened up my eyes you see
I bought a roadmap for my soul
But the answers are inside of me
You decide what's good for you
Choose the heart and not the head
Don't be scared of the days to come
You can live like that, you can live like that
The song "Different Dreams" by Nouveau Vélo is about two people who have different dreams and ideas about life. The lyrics describe the feeling of falling slowly and floating towards the ground, which can be interpreted as a feeling of confusion and uncertainty. The singer then lifts their head and takes a look around, coming to the realization that they are not alone and that there is someone next to them. The only way to move forward is up and they both know it's true.
The singer admits that they have different dreams from their companion, but they will try and meet in the middle. They ask the other to close their eyes when they think of each other, implying that it doesn't matter what they both want, as long as they remember each other. The other person turns their life into a song and the singer sings it loud with iron lungs, indicating their admiration for the other person. The singer also writes the other person's name in the books they've read to make sure they won't forget.
The lyrics use metaphors to convey the message of the song. The falling and floating may represent the feeling of being lost, while the stars that lit up the darkest night may imply hope and inspiration. In the end, the song suggests that we should choose the heart over the head, and not be scared of the days to come. The song's message is one of hope and perseverance, and that even if we have different dreams, we can still find a way to meet in the middle.
