A Head Full of Dreams (Title Track) - Lyrics Decryption

Recommended Posts

Oh, I think I landed

In a world I hadn't seen

When I'm feeling ordinary

When I don't know what I mean

 

Oh I think I landed

Where there are miracles at work

For the thirst and for the hunger

Come the conference of birds

 

And say it's true

It's not what it seems

Leave your broken windows open

And in the light just streams

 

And you get a head

A head full of dreams

You can see the change you want to

Be what you want to be

 

When you get a head

a head full of dreams

It's a love, I’ve just been spoken

With a head full, a head full of dreams

 

I sing oh, I think I landed

Where there are miracles at work

Now you've got me open handed

Now you got me lost for words

 

I sing ohhhhh, ohhhhhh

ohhhhh, ohhhhhh

I sing ohhhhh, ohhhhhh

ohhhhh, ohhhhhh

 

A head full of dreams

 

ohhhhh, ohhhhhh

ohhhhh, ohhhhhh

 

A head full of dreams

 

oooooooh, oooooooooooh

 

It's a love, I've just been spoken

With a head full, a head full of dreams

 

With a head

With a head

Full of dreams

Oh I think I'm landing

 

In a world I hadn't seen

 

When I'm feeling ordinary

 

When I don't know what I mean

 

 

 

Oh I think I'm landing

 

Where there are miracles at work

 

For the thirst and for the hunger (?)

 

Come the conference of birds

 

 

 

And say it's true

 

It's not what it seems

 

Leave your broken windows open

 

And in the light just streams

 

 

 

And you get a head

 

A head full of dreams

 

You can see the change you want to

 

Be what you want to be

 

 

 

When you get a head

 

a head full of dreams

 

It's a .... that's just been spoken

 

with a head full, a head full of dreams

 

 

 

I sing oh, I think I landed

 

Where there are miracles at work

 

Now you've got me open handed

 

Now you got me lost for words

 

 

 

I sing oooooooh, oooooooooooh

 

Ooooohooh oooooohooooh

 

 

 

I sing oooooooh, oooooooooooh

 

Ooooohooh oooooohooooh

 

 

 

A head full of dreams

 

 

 

oooooooh, oooooooooooh

 

Ooooohooh oooooohooooh

 

 

 

A head full of dreams

 

 

 

oooooooh, oooooooooooh

 

 

 

It's enough, I've just been spoken

 

With a head full, a head full of dreams

 

 

 

With a head

 

With a head

 

Full of dreams

I kinda like the lyrics, actually :awesome:

 

They're nothing close to Viva or ARoBttH quality, but I think they fit the tone of the song pretty well without being too cheesy or cliche

 

Agree. For me this era will be something close to viva, cos its more creative and original, it has a pop feeling, but this time its mature like what they've done on the firsts four albums, different than the... MX --' that was too easy to clichê.. like something was missing, now... its huge, Im getting excited ^^

^ I've tried to get into that band SO many times, but I get put off by his voice every time. Chris is the only singer that I can stand to listen to a lot of falsetto from :disappointed:

 

Well crap, that's an annoying problem. The band could make the best music in the world, if you don't like the singer's voice, the whole song is ruined :shrug:

I think that explains Chris' state of mind half the time with his own songwriting :laugh3:

 

"For the thirst and for the hunger

Come the confidence of birth"

 

It's Conference of (the) Birds - look it up - Chris cited it as an influence in the song...

Same for me !

 

 

 

 

By the way, do you remember how someone guessed the Conference Of Birds to be the inspiration for Birds, a while ago? Well maybe it wasn't Birds but that was a damn good guess !

Last line sounds to me like "When I don't know what I'll meet"

 

Makes the first verse just slightly slightly better lyric-wise I guess.
