For What You Dream Of
Sasha & John Digweed Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

For what you dream of (x11)
For what you dream

When the taking and the giving starts to get too much
Let the music hit you with its healing touch
Last night's just a way of marking time
Everybody must express the feeling some time
Express the feeling some time

For what you dream of (x4)
For what you dream

They say a tree is as tall as its many branches
But not all god's children have the same chances

(Get down)

Let the self be the need in life
Don't you know that you can count on second chances
Remember the future and never look back
Listen to the spirit while your body dances

You're losing your mind but that's OK
You're locked in the groove, don't get locked in the groove
Don't get locked

The hall of dangers
The power in love
You walk the fire for what you dream of

The hall of dangers
The power in love
You walk the fire for what you dream of

You're losing your mind but that's OK
You're locked in the groove, throw the keys away

The hall of dangers
The power in love
You walk the fire for what you dream of

The hall of dangers
The power in love
For what you dream of
For what you dream of

The hall of dangers
For what you dream of
Remember the future





For what you dream of (x9)
