First Step
Overdream Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wonder and raise up your head
Set your eyes far on the sky
Hold your breath, fold tight your hands
Let your dreams with us to fly

Blue Globe
My home
Now a faint memory

Will we
See again
Sunbeams play in the sea

One step ahead
Will move each man
One step away
A new era wakes

Send your hopes out in the night
Through the cold, the endless miles

Stars around watch as we float
Stay with us, lead our way home

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to the song "First Step" by Overdream express a sense of wonder and hope for the future. The opening lines encourage the listener to look up at the sky and dream big, suggesting that anything is possible. The chorus refers to the Earth as a "Blue Globe," which becomes a distant memory as the song progresses. This could be interpreted as a reflection of the human impact on the planet and the need for change.

The song then moves on to talk about taking steps forward, both metaphorically and literally. Each person can take one step ahead to create a better future, while one step away is all it takes to begin a new era. This section of the lyrics could be interpreted as an appeal for action towards a better future.

The final verse of the song speaks directly to the stars and asks for guidance on the journey ahead. It's an appeal to something greater than ourselves to help guide us home. This could be interpreted as a nod towards the spiritual or cosmic forces that may be at work in our lives. Overall, the lyrics to "First Step" are a celebration of hope, action, and the power of dreaming big.

Wonder and raise up your head
Take a moment to marvel at the world and lift your head up high

Set your eyes far on the sky
Look up at the vast expanse of the sky in front of you

Hold your breath, fold tight your hands
Take a deep breath and clasp your hands together tightly in anticipation

Let your dreams with us to fly
Allow your aspirations to soar with us

Blue Globe
The Earth- our very own planet

My home
Earth is our home- the only one we have

Now a faint memory
The Earth's beauty and brilliance is fading fast

Will we
Is there a possibility

See again
To witness and experience once more

Sunbeams play in the sea
The sun's rays dancing in the ocean waters

One step ahead
Moving forward by taking one step at a time
