Once In My Dreams
Saidian Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Through out the life that I’ve been living
I’ve never felt this way before
True love to me was never given
I thought I’d live and die alone

You give me reason, you let me live again
And though there’s not much time we’ll spend

Follow me - just once in my dreams
One fleeting moment I need to believe
Share with me this one fantasy
Before forever I’ll leave

Like I have known you for a life-time
It seems to me when I’m with you
The circle’s closing and it all stands in line
In you I’ve found the love that’s true

You gave me reason, you gave me life again
And so I say before the end

Follow me - just once in my dreams
One fleeting moment I need to believe
Share with me this one fantasy
Before forever I’ll leave

On my way into death and destruction
Kneel and pray ‘cause the end has begun
Here I’ll stay where the madness of war rages on
Far away from the cries of the dying
To a place without sorrow and pain
Goes my mind to unite with your soul there in time

Follow me - just once in my dreams
One fleeting moment I need to believe
Share with me this one fantasy
Before forever I’ll leave

Follow me - just once in my dreams
One fleeting moment I need to believe

Share with me this one fantasy
Before forever I’ll leave

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Saidian's song "Once In My Dreams" primarily talks about the singer's newfound love and the desire to live together with the person they love, even if only for a short amount of time. The opening lines of the song express the singer's lack of experience in love and the overwhelming feeling it brings them. They thought they'd never find true love and would live a lonely life. But meeting their significant other has changed that.

The singer speaks of the love they share and its intensity. Being with the significant other feels so natural that it seems like they have known each other for a lifetime. The circle is now complete since they have found love, and their love feels authentic. As the song progresses, the singer acknowledges that their time together is limited and that they will have to depart from each other soon. They ask for just one moment in their dreams, one fantasy, to hold on to the feeling of being together.

Towards the end of the song, the singer talks about their collective fate. They acknowledge that they are in dangerous times, and chaos may surround them, considering they may part ways forever. The singer then prays that they would be able to find their loved one again in another life, in a different place without sorrow and pain.

Overall, the song is a beautiful tale of love, fear and hope, acknowledging that life is short, and it's important to cherish the time spent with our loved ones.

Through out the life that I’ve been living
During the entirety of my existence

I’ve never felt this way before
I have never experienced this emotion previously

True love to me was never given
I have never been bestowed with genuine affection

I thought I’d live and die alone
I believed I would continue my existence without companionship, and ultimately expire in solitude

You give me reason, you let me live again
You provide purpose to my existence, and revive my spirit

And though there’s not much time we’ll spend
Despite the limited amount of time we have together

Follow me - just once in my dreams
Accompany me - if only within my subconscious

One fleeting moment I need to believe
A singular, brief instance in which I can have faith

Share with me this one fantasy
Indulge me in this one illusion

Before forever I’ll leave
Prior to my departure into eternity

Like I have known you for a life-time
As if you and I have shared an extensive history together

It seems to me when I’m with you
My observations indicate that in your presence

The circle’s closing and it all stands in line
All aspects of my life and experiences are coming together and aligning

In you I’ve found the love that’s true
I have discovered genuine love within you

You gave me reason, you gave me life again
You bestowed upon me purpose and rejuvenated my existence

And so I say before the end
Therefore, I express myself prior to my demise

On my way into death and destruction
As I journey towards my demise and the ruin that will follow

Kneel and pray ‘cause the end has begun
Kneel and offer devotion as the conclusion draws near

Here I’ll stay where the madness of war rages on
I will remain in this location amidst the chaos of conflict

Far away from the cries of the dying
Remote from the wails of those perishing

To a place without sorrow and pain
Towards a location devoid of misery and anguish

Goes my mind to unite with your soul there in time
My consciousness journeys to merge with your essence in that realm
