Lyrics for Orange Sky as interpreted by geekusa

Orange Sky Lyrics
Well I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
Yes I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
With my brother standing by
With my brother standing by
I said brother, you know you know
It's a long road we've been walking on
Brother you know it is, you know it is
Such a long road we've been walking on

And I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
With my sister standing by
With my sister standing by
I said sister, here is what I know now
Here is what I know now
Goes like this
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, in your love, in your love

But sister you know I'm so weary
And you know sister
My hearts been broken
Sometimes, sometimes
My mind is too strong to carry on
Too strong to carry on

When I am alone
When I've thrown off the weight of this crazy stone
When I've lost all care for the things I own
That's when I miss you, that's when I miss you, that's when I miss you
You who are my home
You who are my home
And here is what I know now
Here is what I know now
Goes like this
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, in your love, in your love

Well I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
Yes I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
With my brother and my sister standing by
With my brother and my sister standing by
With my brother and my sister standing by

Just a beautiful song that puts you in a good mood, one of those songs that you listen to as you drive home from a big party, with the sun coming up and the streets are empty.

this song is more powerful in the movie trailer for "Paradise Now". check it out!

but of course, this song does well for Garden State.

They couldn't put this on the Garden State soundtrack because the OC already had the rights to it, it's on Mix 1 from the OC. I love Murdoch, can't wait for more.

This is a hymn. I'm surprised it took me this long to figure that out.

"When I am alone
When I've thrown off the weight of this crazy stone
When I've lost all care for the things I own
That's when I miss you, that's when I miss you, that's when I miss you
You who are my home"

he only realises she is his home when he's lost all material possessions. that's quite poignant.

wow, this song really gets around. I forgot about it for a while and then heard it tonight at the end of Ugly Betty. It was used during 'family scenes' as well.

so i'm just looking for soem views on this song. it could be literal in talking about family relationships, but i think there is also some deeper meanings perhaps. anyone care to share their own thoughts?

The chorus could fit with plenty of situations, but I think if you take the song as a whole, it fits best with the literal meaning: family.
He's talking to at least two people, brother and sister.
Since it's more than one, we know it's not a lover.
I think it's about family. =)

I know it's not (so don't bite my head off) but when I hear this song I alway think of God... brothers and sisters in Christ, & the line "in your love, my salvation lies." I don't know... I just love this song and to me it is watching the sky and feeling a peaceful yearning to meet God. :)

this website and song make me realize the beauty of music even more, and that is that songs have no correct meaning. we can sit here all day and debate what it means but no one will ever be right. what it means to me could be totally different then what it means to alexi or any of you. thats whats great about music is that it has no set meaning. thats what also seperates music from anything else in the entertainment industry. i love music for the reason i cant chose for a song to mean something on this day and then tomorrow when i feel like crap it can mean something 100% different.

goa i freaken love music

I could listen to this song for hours on end. It's beauty honestly goes beyond what I could ever put in words. The fact that it has a hymn embedded in it makes it that much more amazing, I think.
