Girl of My Dreams
Pied Pipers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Years full of tears and regret;
I've been alone broken hearted,
Trying so hard to forget:
Girl of my dreams I love you, honest I do,
You are so sweet,
If I could just hold your charms again in my arms,
Since you've been gone dear, life don't seem the same,
Please come back again.
And after all's said and done, there's only one,
Girl of my dreams, it's you.
It's strange how life deals you sorrow,
Sunshine and joy always nigh;
We live and learn for tomorrow,
But sometimes the learning comes high:
Girl of my dreams I love you, honest I do,
You are so sweet,
If I could just hold your charms again in my arms,
Then life would be complete;
Since you've been gone dear, life don't seem the same,
Please come back again.
And after all's said and done, there's only one,
Girl of my dreams, it's you.
Girl of my dreams I love you, honest I do,
You are so sweet,
If I could just hold your charms again in my arms,
Then life would be complete;
Since you've been gone dear, life don't seem the same,
Please come back again.
And after all's said and done, there's only one,
Girl of my dreams, it's you.
The lyrics of Pied Piper's "Girl of My Dreams" is about a man who is deeply in love with a woman who has left him. Even though he has spent years trying to forget her, he can’t deny his feelings for her. He longs to hold her in his arms again and believes that his life will be complete if she returns to him. He admits that his life has not been the same since she left, and there is only one woman who can make him happy, the girl of his dreams.
The song portrays the pain of lost love and the longing for it to return. It talks about the ups and downs of life and how sometimes life can deal us sorrow, but we still live and learn from it. The lyrics show that love, although it can bring immense joy, can also bring great sadness.
The repetition of the chorus throughout the song emphasizes the man's desperation for his love to return. The chorus is a mantra that he repeats to himself, hoping that it will call his love back to him. The lyrics also highlight how one person can have such a profound impact on another's life, leaving an indelible mark on their soul.

Dear, it seems years since we parted,
It feels like a long time since we said goodbye.
Years full of tears and regret;
I have been sad and sorry for a long time.
I've been alone broken hearted,
I have been sad and lonely.
Trying so hard to forget:
I have been making an effort to forget about you.
Girl of my dreams I love you, honest I do,
The woman I think about all the time, my dream girl, I truly love her.
You are so sweet,
You are kind, caring and lovely.
If I could just hold your charms again in my arms,
If I could embrace your beauty once again,
Then life would be complete;
My life would be whole and fulfilled.
Since you've been gone dear, life don't seem the same,
Life has been different and empty without you, my love.
Please come back again.
Please return to me.
And after all's said and done, there's only one,
Despite everything, there is only one person I think about,
Girl of my dreams, it's you.
My dream girl, it's you.
It's strange how life deals you sorrow,
It is odd how life makes you unhappy,
Sunshine and joy always nigh;
Happiness and joy seem to be close by,
We live and learn for tomorrow,
We live today and learn from it for tomorrow,
But sometimes the learning comes high:
Occasionally, the lessons we learn are difficult to take.
