Lagu ini berpusat pada refleksi seorang narator tentang hubungan mereka yang rumit dengan seseorang spesial. Melalui serangkaian gambaran mimpi, liriknya mengungkapkan kerinduan akan kejelasan, keinginan untuk dicintai tanpa syarat, dan pengakuan bahwa bahkan dalam ketidakpastian, cinta tetap menjadi kekuatan yang menyatukan.
Back From Kathmandu Lyrics
OK Go
In the dream you were someone different
You and everyone else all at once
You were beautiful, you were beautiful
In the dream you were just like you are
You loved everyone like a sovereign
Half magnanimous, half unimpressed
And I was talkin' too much I was tryin' too hard
In the dream it was just like it is
Everything was so simple
Things are how they always will be
You are the answer to the question that is me
In the dream it was just like it is
We were captive in, in a prison
Where everyone was guilty by mistake
And it was infinite, it was infinite
In the dream it was just like it is
And I, I asked, "Is that good for you?"
You said, "No, probably not
But everybody's gotta get through the night
And love is all we got", yeah
In the dream it was just like it is
Yeah, in the dream it was just like it is
In the dream you were someone different
You and everyone else all at once
You were beautiful, you were beautiful
In the dream it was just like it is
You and everyone else all at once
You were beautiful, you were beautiful
In the dream you were just like you are
You loved everyone like a sovereign
Half magnanimous, half unimpressed
And I was talkin' too much I was tryin' too hard
In the dream it was just like it is
Everything was so simple
Things are how they always will be
You are the answer to the question that is me
In the dream it was just like it is
We were captive in, in a prison
Where everyone was guilty by mistake
And it was infinite, it was infinite
In the dream it was just like it is
And I, I asked, "Is that good for you?"
You said, "No, probably not
But everybody's gotta get through the night
And love is all we got", yeah
In the dream it was just like it is
Yeah, in the dream it was just like it is
In the dream you were someone different
You and everyone else all at once
You were beautiful, you were beautiful
In the dream it was just like it is
