The Sweetest Sounds
Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
What is in the ear of my mind
Which sounds are true and clear
And which will never be defined
The sweetest sounds I'll ever hear
Are still inside my head
The kindest words I'll ever know
The most and entrancing side of all
Is yet for me to see
And the dearest love in all the world
Is waiting somewhere for me
Is waiting somewhere, somewhere for me
The lyrics of The Sweetest Sounds by Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella is all about the beauty of imagination and the power of language. The first few lines are a contemplation of what we internalize through our ears and how they shape our thoughts. The singer of the song accepts that not everything heard is real, and much of what she hears is a product of her own imagination, and can't be defined.
The song then continues with the idea that the sweetest sounds and kindest words are ones that people create within their own minds, rather than having them come from external sources. The words and sounds that we create within our own minds can be the most powerful in terms of their impact on our emotions and thoughts. We anticipate positive experiences such as entrancing beauty and the dearest love, and hope to find them in the world someday.
In conclusion, the song talks about the beauty and power of the language, the sweetest sounds we make within our own minds, and the positive anticipation of waiting to discover the dearest love and entrancing beauty.

The sweetest sounds, I'll ever hear
Are still inside my head
The kindest words I'll ever know
Are waiting to be said
The most entrancing sight of all
Is yet for me to see....
And the dearest love in all the world
Is waiting somewhere for me
Is waiting somewhere.... Somewhere for me.

And the dearest love in all the world
Is waiting somewhere for me
Is waiting somewhere.... Somewhere for me.
