The Way I Feel
TWENTY SEVEN HEAVENS Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been really sad since you've been gone
I wait upon the come for other dawn
I talk to my friends but what do they say
The names and the faces of all night and day

I listen to the cars in the rain outside
And I wish that I could be your shelter tonight
But you never really knew how I leave this day
And I never really tried to tell you

Do you cry in your sleep
When you dream about me
Does your body keep reminding you
Of how we used to be
Do you look around and wonder
If any thing is real
Then you'll know for once, my baby
The way I feel

You've kept our fire and I see things on
We lived together but you felt so alone
I can talk to the moon and the ashes are gray
But there are some things that I just can't say

What about a world that you couldn't express
The visions and the virgens of emptyness
You never could say and I never could guess
So we see in a secret

Do you cry in your sleep
When you dream about me
Do you look through other memories
For the things you didn't see
Do you fantasize the hapiness
And dream in vain for real
Then you'll finally know, my baby
Our love, ohhh, the love... oh love!

Do you cry in your sleep
When you dream about me
Does your body keep reminding you
Of how we used to be
Do you look around and wonder
If any thing is real
Then you'll know for once, my baby




And then you'll know for once, my baby
The way I feel

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of TWENTY SEVEN HEAVENS song THE WAY I FEEL express the deep feelings of sadness, loneliness, and longing. The singer is clearly missing someone who was important to them and is struggling to deal with the pain of their absence. They wait for the dawn to come, hoping for a new beginning, but nothing seems to numb their pain. Even talking to friends doesn't seem to help, as their names and faces seem to blur together into an empty sea of night and day.


The singer longs to be with their loved one again and wishes they could be their shelter on a rainy night. However, they never fully expressed how deeply they felt, and now it seems too late. The bridge of the song reveals that the singer is not the only one who is struggling. They wonder if their loved one is crying in their sleep and dreams about them. The singer questions if their loved one's body is reminding them of the way they used to be together, and if they look around and wonder if anything is real. The singer's longing is so intense that they wish their loved one could feel their pain, and only then they would know the depth of their emotions.

"Você chora enquanto dorme?
Quando você sonha comigo?
Seu corpo continua lembrando você
De como costumávamos ser
Você olha em volta e se pergunta
Se alguma coisa é real
Então você saberá de uma vez meu bebê,
O jeito que eu me sinto"

I´ve been really sad since you´ve been gone
I wait upon the come for other dawn
I talk to my friends but what do they say
The names and the faces of all night and day
I listen to the cars in the rain outside
And I wish that I could be your shelter tonight
But you never really knew how I leave this day
And I never really tried to tell you
Do you cry in your sleep
When you dream about me
Does your body keep reminding you
Of how we used to be
Do you look around and wonder
If any thing is real
Then you´ll know for once, my baby
The way I feel
You´ve kept our fire and I see things on
We lived together but you felt so alone
I can talk to the moon and the ashes are gray
But there are some things that I just can´t say
What about a world that you couldn´t express
The visions and the virgens of emptyness
You never could say and I never could guess
So we see in a secret
Do you cry in your sleep
When you dream about me
Do you look through other memories
For the things you didn´t see

Nem ela nem Under The Ilusion Que É O Do Mesmo Artista O Peter Valentine

Peter Valentine

Though we've never been to Brazil, I have always wanted to visit and do a concert with my old friend, Sergio Dias, from Mutantes. He is a wonderful guitarist and singer from the old style, like me. I wish I could understand all the comments posted here, but I don't speak Portugese. Twenty Seven Heavens is now reformed with Amanda Homi on percussion and vocals, under the name Suspicious Gadget. - Peter Valentine

DCredi

I don´t believe!!! reality is you Peter???
 You are always welcome to Brazil!!
your songs fixed we lifes!!
Congratullations for all!!

Jairo Sabino Amparo

Peter. This song will be forever on the soundtrack of my life. I never understood why I never found a videoclip, a live performance, or something. 27 Heavens... the best kept secret in world's music. Many many thanks. I guess I can talk in the name of a whole generation of brazilian music lovers. Thank you so much.

Jairo Sabino Amparo

Parabéns , DCredi. Por perceber que o Peter escreveu aqui pessoalmente. Nesses tempos loucos, a sensibilidade é uma jóia rara.

Celinha BR

This is a really great song, Peter. All the comments in Portuguese are basically praising it, everyone thinking it's a wonderful song, unforgettable to them, myself included.

Luiz Pereira
