A warm, nostalgic campus folk song built on gentle vocals and soft acoustic arrangements, carrying a calm, slightly bittersweet sense of youthful reflection—like hearing an old, familiar melody drift across a quiet campus at dusk. Lyric:
[Verse 1]
There are a few keywords
Beautiful days
Old songs
Friends
Books of poetry
The girl from the class next door
We were that innocent back then
Carving our borrowed sadness
Into the shadows of youth
.
We once believed beyond the mountains
Was the whole wide world
Believed that once you left
You would never look back
Yet every sunset you see
Makes you unbearably homesick
.
[Chorus]
Where do the harmonies of time wait
Inside these ordinary days
Is there comfort
Is there enough to last
Are all the dreams of a lifetime
Destined in the end
To be only
Dreams
.
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I don’t want to speak
I just stare
Stare into the distance, stare at pigs
Stare at my hands, stare at the screen
My thoughts are drifting
But I’m thinking of nothing at all
Along this road
Only starlight keeps me company
.
The cold wind is never colder than the heart
Winter is only the prelude to spring
Silence is, too
.
Ah—
Have you ever seen a grown-up face again
Who wiped away your clear tears
You crossed mountains, crossed oceans
Crossed moonlight, starlight, fading skies
Does the message in a bottle
Have another stop
.
[Chorus]
Oh, where do the harmonies of time wait
Inside these ordinary days
Is there comfort
Is there enough to last
Are all the dreams of a lifetime
Destined in the end
To be only
Dreams
.
[Bridge / Refrain]
We once believed beyond the mountains
Was the whole wide world
Believed that once you left
You would never look back
.
You crossed mountains and seas
Crossed the next stop
Do you still remember
The hidden clues
Buried in the cracks of our days
.
[Final Chorus / Outro]
Oh, where do the harmonies of time wait
Inside these ordinary days
Is there comfort
Is there enough to last
Are all the dreams of a lifetime
Destined in the end
To be only
Dreams
.
You crossed mountains and seas
Crossed the next stop
Do you still remember
The foreshadowing
Hidden in the breaks of time
.
Oh, where do the harmonies of time wait
Inside these ordinary days
Are all the dreams of a lifetime
In the end
Only dreamsmore
