The Avalon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A dream lover will come my way
A girl to hold in my arms
And know the magic of her charms
'Cause I want (yeah-yeah, yeah)
A girl (yeah-yeah, yeah)
To call (yeah-yeah, yeah)
My own (yeah-yeah)
So I don't have to dream alone
Dream lover, where are you
With a love, oh, so true
And the hand that I can hold
To feel you near as I grow old
'Cause I want (yeah-yeah, yeah)
A girl (yeah-yeah, yeah)
To call (yeah-yeah, yeah)
My own (yeah-yeah, yeah)
I want a dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone
Someday, I don't know how
I hope she'll hear my plea
Some way, I don't know how
She'll bring her love to me
Dream lover, until then
I'll go to sleep and dream again
That's the only thing to do
Till all my lover's dreams come true
'Cause I want (yeah-yeah, yeah)
A girl (yeah-yeah, yeah)
To call (yeah-yeah, yeah)
My own (yeah-yeah, yeah)
I want a dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone
Dream lover, until then
I'll go to sleep and dream again
That's the only thing to do
Till all my lover's dreams come true
'Cause I want (yeah-yeah, yeah)
A girl (yeah-yeah, yeah)
To call (yeah-yeah, yeah)
My own (yeah-yeah)
I want a dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone
Please don't make me dream alone
I beg you don't make me dream alone
No, I don't wanna dream alone

You taste the tears'
You are experiencing sadness and crying
You're lost in sorrow
You feel very sad and don't know how to move on
You see your yesterdays
You are looking at the past and feeling stuck
I see tomorrow
I have a vision for your future that is brighter than your past
You see the darkness
You are focusing on the negative aspects of your life
I see the light
I see hope and positivity even in difficult times
You know your failures
You are aware of your mistakes and shortcomings
But I know your heart
I understand your true intentions and potential
The dreams I dream for you
I have a positive vision for your future
Are deeper than the ones you're clinging to
My vision for you goes beyond your current desires and goals
More precious than the finest thing you knew
My vision for you is worth more than any material possession
And truer than the treasures our pursue
My vision for you is based on reality, not just material things we think will make us happy
Let the old dreams die
You need to let go of your current desires that are holding you back
Like stars that fade from view
Just like stars eventually disappear, your old dreams can too
Then take the cup I offer
Take hold of the new opportunities I am offering
And drink deeply of the dreams I dream for you
Fully embrace and pursue my positive vision for your future
You see your shame
You are focusing on your mistakes and regrets
But I see your glory
I see your potential and positive qualities
You've read one page
You feel like you know your story and potential
I know the story
I see the bigger picture and know your full potential
I hold a vision
I have a powerful and positive vision for your future
That you'll become
You have the potential to become who I see in my vision for you
As you grow into the truth
As you learn and become more aware of reality and yourself, you can fulfill my vision for you
As you learn to walk in love
As you become more loving and kind, you will reach your full potential
