OK I have to admit I breezed by this track last year when I first took a listen to the entire Empire of the Sun album and thought it was ok, but not exactly my thing. With that said, I must have subconsciously liked it enough to have added it to my ipod and boy has this song just grown on me. The chorus just sticks and plays like a warm summer sun setting, leaving a warm glow after sunset. Spectacular.
Empire of the Sun – Walking on a Dream
lyrics:
Walking on a dream
How can I explain
Talking to myself
Will I see again
We are always running for the thrill of it thrill of it
Always pushing up the hill searching for the thrill of it
On and on and on we are calling out and out again
Never looking down I’m just in awe of what’s in front of me
Is it real now
When two people become one
I can feel it
When two people become one
Thought I’d never see
The love you found in me
Now it’s changing all the time
Living in a rhythm where the minutes working overtime
Catch me I’m falling down
Catch me I’m falling down
Don’t stop just keep going on
I’m your shoulder lean upon
So come on deliver from inside
All we got is tonight that is right till first light
