Meditation
Werner Müller and His Orchestra Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I am lost in meditation
And my reverie
Brings you back to me
For in my imagination
Love has lingered on
As though you'd never gone.

This is just a dream that cannot last

When the magic of this mood has passed.
So I sit in meditation
Trying to pretend this mood will never end.

I am lost in meditation
And my reverie
Brings you back to me
For in my imagination
Love has lingered on
As though you'd never gone.

This is just a dream that cannot last
When the magic of this mood has passed.

So I sit in meditation
Trying to pretend this mood will never end.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Werner Müller and His Orchestra's song Meditation speak to the power of meditation and the human imagination to bring back lost love. The singer is lost in meditation, and in their reverie, they are able to imagine their lost love returning to them. The passion of their love seems to have "lingered on," even though the person they loved is no longer with them. The singer recognizes that this is just a dream, and that the power of the moment will eventually subside. However, the singer clings to the hope that this feeling of love and connection will never end.

The song is a beautiful homage to the power of meditation and the human imagination. It captures the way that we can sometimes escape into our own minds and create a new reality for ourselves. The lyrics are poignant and moving, speaking to the universal experience of love and loss.

Line by Line Meaning

I am lost in meditation
I am deeply immersed in my thoughts and contemplation.

And my reverie
And my daydream transports me to another place.

Brings you back to me
Brings back memories of you to my mind.

For in my imagination
Because in my mind's eye, I can see and feel your presence.

Love has lingered on
My love for you still exists and persists.

As though you'd never gone.
It feels like you have never left my side.

This is just a dream that cannot last
However, I know that this is just a fantasy and not reality.

When the magic of this mood has passed.
The moment this enchanting feeling fades away.

So I sit in meditation
Therefore, I take this time to ponder and contemplate.

Trying to pretend this mood will never end.
Attempting to convince myself that this soulful mood will never cease to exist.
