Dreamcatcher
Peter Henry Phillips Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lost halfway into his flight
Found a dreamcatcher
I'm gonna catch his wings and learn to fly
And i'll be fighting hard
For my dreams
For my home
For my baby
Found a dreamcatcher
I'm gonna catch all his ways and find
Someday, someday
Gonna make it somewhere
Well I'm almost there
I'm almost there
I'm almost there
MUSIC
The hills
They're tides
The hills
They're mine
And I go, I go there alone
The hills
They're high
The hills
They're mine
Now I go
I go down
The hills
They're tides
The hills
They drive me on
Me on
The lyrics to Peter Henry Phillips's song Dreamcatcher speak to the idea of going after one's dreams and fighting for what truly matters. The dreamcatcher is a symbol of those dreams, the ones that seem to be just out of reach but are worth chasing anyway. In the first verse, the singer discovers the dreamcatcher in mid-flight, and decides to take hold of it and learn to fly. This can be interpreted both figuratively and literally: the dreamcatcher represents the things we yearn for in life, and learning to fly represents the act of achieving those goals.
The second verse further emphasizes the idea of perseverance and hard work to make your dreams a reality. The singer is dedicated to fighting hard for their dreams and all that is important to them - their home and their loved ones. He is determined to catch "all his ways" and someday make it somewhere. The repetition of "I'm almost there" is a powerful reminder that even when it feels like we're not quite making progress, we should keep pushing forward.
Overall, Dreamcatcher is a hopeful and motivating song that encourages us to hold onto our dreams and never give up on them.

MUSIC
Instrumental break
The hills
The mountains or uphill climb
They're tides
They are constantly shifting and changing like ocean tides
The hills
The mountains or uphill climb
They're mine
I possess them or they belong to me
And I go, I go there alone
I venture to the hills by myself
The hills
The mountains or uphill climb
They're high
They are elevated and difficult to climb
The hills
The mountains or uphill climb
They're mine
I possess them or they belong to me
Now I go
I head towards the hills
I go down
I descend from the hill
The hills
The mountains or uphill climb
They're tides
They are constantly shifting and changing like ocean tides
The hills
The mountains or uphill climb
They drive me on
They push and motivate me to keep climbing

Voix impressionnante qui nous hante encore une fois l'écoute terminée. Un conteur d'histoires ... comme celles que nous a si bien racontées Chris de Burgh.
