Land of Hope and Dreams Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Wilson92 

Cover art for Land of Hope and Dreams lyrics by Bruce Springsteen

What I take from this song is a simple message of getting away, going to a land of hope and dreams, a place where your dreams will not be thwarted, a land where bells of freedom ring and there's no darkness. Everyone is invited too! whores and gamblers, lost souls, saints and sinners, losers and winners... the brokenhearted.

The train mentioned in the song definitely sends powerful message, as you can imagine a big train carrying every type of person mentioned rolling through the fields where sunlight streams. It's a very gratifying song, and my take on it is that it's just a simple.
