The Awakening
Retronic Voice Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Once I had a dream the world came crashing in
I was afraid that it was my sin
In my deepest mind I knew I was not to blame at all
Somewhere from afar I heard a call

You'd better wake up and see the world outside your door
It's not an illusion you've seen it before
Open your eyes wear no disguise and let your mind inhale the mood
Create a new life get rid of your strife you have all the world to see
Oceans are blue you dream of them too but they're real for me and for you
If you believe what I say the pleasure remains

I'll come and take behold of what's there to comprehend
If I get afraid can I take your hand
We live in mysterious times and the riddles are hard to solve
And once again I hear that call

Aim at the skies and let your feelings fly away
The nature is yours so come what may

Open your eyes wear no disguise and let your mind inhale the mood
Create a new life get rid of your strife you have all the world to see
Oceans are blue you dream of them too but they're real for me and for you
If you believe what I say the pleasure remains

The circle of life is turning days they're just passing by
I just won't remember yesterday

Open your eyes wear no disguise and let your mind inhale the mood
Create a new life get rid of your strife you have all the world to see




And oceans are blue you dream of them too but they're real for me and for you
If you believe what I say the pleasure remains the pleasure remains

Sziasztok!Ahogyan olvasom a Retronic Voice videók hozzászóllásait a boldog 20-on éveimre gondolok.Imádom az ilyen zenéket.

@markhopwood6928

What a great song this is.

@Italogirl1000

Very nice music... I am crazy about it.. xxx

@325iaddict

just perfect mix of italo and space-synth Michiel van der Kuy used to compose (Laserdance). This warm, deep bass is sooo relaxing, and so much more pleasant than those nineties mid-bass "tock tock" "bassdrums". The voice is also exactly matching the whole sound. It's one stompin', steamin' song full of drive :-) Go on like this please, please!!

@tavooayala2991

conmovedor tema, sin perder el ritmo!
