Dreamcatcher

A fleeting thought of airplanes to another place
My fingers catching ripples in moonlit streams (yeah~)

My porcelain lips, with stiff expressions I can�t shake
I�m still dreaming, at the ceiling, for an escape

I turn to you once more,
In the golden hours of midnight
The softest lips you move
Leave spaces I can�t hold~

If you could paint on my words
That both of us could never say
If you could melt in my love
Fading by every second chance

You�re my dream catcher,
Dream catcher
But all my wishes slipped away

Wanna be your love
Even though it�s meaningless~yeah

Guilt fills up blank spaces, weighing on my toes
If memory could only keep us both (here~)

The radio static that tangles my words (woah~)
Disappears as soon as,
As soon as, I hold your shadow~

I�ve always done so much but stop to think
That I could run, but never go anywhere
I�ve never done so much but think about what�s missin�
When I missed you the most~

Let me paint on your words
That both of us could never say
Let me melt in your love
Fading by every second chance

You�re my dream catcher,
Dream catcher
And I catch myself waiting here

Wanna be your love
Even though you must always leave~again

In your dream~
My fingers ripple waves of our,
Possibility�

Shine for me~
A thousand words painted on with a kiss�

I won�t have the last words
To defy the hands of our fate
All I know is my heart
And I hope that yours beats the same

You�re my dream catcher,
Dream catcher
And I caught myself in your gaze

Wanna be your love
Even though this is all we have~yeah

You�re my,
You�re my,
You�re my dream catcher�

One of the most precious things about this song on the first listen is the intro and the absence of singing...except in our own thoughts. This song definitely lets you ponder alone so beautifully. When the vocals do come though, in Korean, it is sung by the honey-sweet, melodic voices of GFriend. �

And of course, these English lyrics are made by me.

Author's Note

Being a loner most of my life (literally lol), it�s interesting that one can write about love quite often. If anything, falling in love says as much about you than it does the other person. In order to show true love, one has to show their true selves, or else, the love is not real. These lyrics describe someone who gave up on the fact that s/he was enough for such a thing as love. It was only in their dreams, but never in their hope. S/he saw the possibility, but never thought that someone like them is worthy of it. After realizing that there was nothing in their heart that truly mattered to them, s/he becomes grateful for the other person, regardless of their own deficiencies. And this, becomes true love. Indeed, you can catch a dream, but only you can believe you are enough to do so.
