Walking On a Dream Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Walking on a dream
How can I explain?
Talking to myself

Will I see again?

[Pre-Chorus]
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, out again
Never looking down, I'm just in awe of what's in front of me

[Chorus]
Is it real now?
Two people become one
I can feel it
Two people become one


[Verse 2]
Thought I'd never see
The love you found in me
Now it's changing all the time
Living in a rhythm where the minute's working over time

[Pre-Chorus]
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, out again
Never looking down, I'm just in awe of what's in front of me
[Chorus]
Is it real now?
Two people become one
I can feel it
Two people become one
Is it real now?
Two people become one
I can feel it
Two people become one


[Bridge]
Catch me, I'm falling down
Catch me, I'm falling down

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus]
Is it real now?
Two people become one
I can feel it
Two people become one
Is it real now?
Two people become one
I can feel it
Two people become one

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

“Walking on a Dream” is Australian electropop duo Empire of the Sun’s first and most popular single, off their 2008 debut album of the same name.

They told The Sun:

Talking about Walking On A Dream and what it feels like when you’re missing home or you’re missing someone isn’t just ‘it’ — one thing.

Sometimes trying to explain what a song is about spoils the beauty and it rips your heart out painting it black and white.

The mystery is part of the beauty and you kill a song when you tell too much.
