The Doors – Ghost Song Lyrics 5 months ago
I think the first part is about birth and reincarnation. A soul chooses its parents in the period before birth. Choosing from naked couples, not naked as in nude, but stripped of all layers so that the soul can see the whole of the souls of its future parents. The word "again" in "The time has come again" and "Enter again" refer to reincarnation. "Enter ... the sweet forest" and "Enter the hot dream" meaning the beginning of physical life.

Awake.

Shake dreams for your hair
My pretty child, my sweet one.
Choose the day
And choose the sign of your day,
The day's divinity.
First thing you see.

A vast radiant beach
And a cool jeweled moon.
Couples naked race down
By its quiet side,
And we laugh like
Soft mad children
Smug in the wooly
Cotton brains of infancy.

The music and voices
Are all around us.

Choose they croon
The ancient ones,
The time has come again.
Choose now they croon
Beneath the moon
Beside an ancient lake.
Enter again the sweet forest.
Enter the hot dream
Come with us.
Everything is broken up
And dances.
