Ordinary Dream

Electric Light Orchestra

Transposer:

Intro: I couldn’t really understand at all The writing on the wall From you to me A jigsaw puzzle of a twisted tale That set it’s lonely sail From you to me ’Cos I tried to get the message But it’s not understood Wide apart and so far away It mattered at the start until I realized instead I’m floating in a troubled sky Watching you as you go by In an ordinary dream I’m sailing on a troubled sea Watching you as you watch me In an ordinary dream I couldn’t understand a word it said The letter that I read From you to me I couldn’t fathom out the stuff you wrote So I guess it’s just a joke From you to me Though reality keeps calling me away from my dream And the wreakage isn’t all it might have been Didn’t matter at the start until I realized it did I’m floating in a troubled sky Watching you as you go by In an ordinary dream I’m sailing on a troubled sea Watching you as you watch me In an ordinary dream I’m floating in a troubled sky Watching you as you go by In an ordinary dream I’m sailing on a troubled sea Watching you as you watch me In an ordinary dream Ordinary dream

Cette chanson évoque la difficulté de comprendre un lien complexe entre deux personnes. Le protagoniste se sent perdu dans un rêve qui semble ordinaire, mais qui est rempli d'incertitudes et de désillusion. L'idée d'une correspondance mal comprise renforce la distance qui les sépare, comme s'il naviguait sur une mer agitée, observant l'autre sans vraiment atteindre cette connexion. On perçoit une lutte entre la réalité et les désirs intérieurs, où le rêve devient un espace d'évasion face aux enjeux de la vie. Le protagoniste réalise que même si cette relation semblait prometteuse à l'origine, elle a pris une tournure dont il n'arrive pas à saisir le sens, laissant place à une mélancolie palpable.
