I'm Dreaming Lyrics

If you stand for something
You must give it a try
To live through a tango
Our complicated lies

I'm dreaming
But this is the real thing
I'm dreaming
Of much better things

It's not what I thought you had
It's not the life I thought we had
Ohh...

Conventionalism
Covers the divine
We miss the picture
Our eyes open wide

I'm dreaming
But this is the real thing
I'm dreaming
Of much better things

It's not the world I thought we had
It's not the life I thought we had
Oh yeah...

I'm dreaming
But this is the real thing
I'm dreaming
Of much better things

I'm dreaming
Oh, this is the real thing
I'm dreaming
Of much better things

I'm dreaming, oh
I'm dreaming...
Lalalalala...
Babumbumbumbum...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

"Conventionalism Covers the divine We miss the picture Our eyes open wide"

Thats the best lyric from the whole album.

People do what they're told every day, and don't like people who don't, but by doing that, they're missing out on some beautiful things & beautiful people.

The narrator is 'dreaming', but realizes that its just a dream and the world may never change (but this is the real thing), but still keeps dreaming of a better world.
