While this song is a love song, the overall message about dreaming in color and wanting more for yourself out of life than what you are receiving has always resonated with me, and it has always made me cry, and it probably always will.
LYRICS AND SONG ATTACHED BELOW
“Ooh, hoo yeah
Mmm, hmm Tired of living life in black and white
There’s so much in between
Like a rainbow in the sky
Crying to be seen
When I open my eyes to find inspiration
I search for the best I can see
If I settle for less
I won’t be the best I can be When I dream,
I dream in color
I want a love, not just a lover
I’ll give you so many good reasons
To capture a dream, yeah, yeah Life is short,
but can’t be bought, mmm
And time is a very precious thing
I want to go to where I’ve never been
And see what’s never been seen In the midst
of the morning I won’t take for granted
There’ll always be another new day
Got to live for each moment
Never let time slip away When I dream,
I dream in color
I want a love, not just a lover
I’ll give you so many good reasons
To capture a dream, whoaIf I was unaware,
if I didn’t care
About people and places and things
How could I live a life full and satisfied
Now knowing how to dream
When I dream, oh, yeah When I dream,
I dream in color
I want a love, not just a lover
Show me a child who never has seen
A vision that shows what his life really means
I’ll give you so many good reasons
To capture a dream” – lyricfind.com
