Oasis - Idler's Dream Lyrics

Oasis come back... please

Oasis - Idler's Dream

My heart it skips a beat when I behold
The light that's shining through your eyes of gold
From heavenly blood you seem to spring
From heavenly waters you can drink

I'll meet you on a day that never ends
I'll greet you in the way that heaven meant
You lay me down gently on the leaves
You cover me over in my sleep

I never did sing I wish I could
I never could pray cos it's just no good
I hope you don't break my heart of stone
I don't wanna scream out loud and wake up on my own mmhmm

And as I close my eyes
And the sky turns red
I realise just what you are
You're an idler's dream and you're singing shangri-la
shangri-la
shangri-la
shangri-la

It's not an understatement to say that Noel writes better b-sides than other people write albums.

I would love to hear Liam sing this now

2:20 unnecessary Beatles background vocals

Sounds beautiful and really adds to the song IMO.

bellissima!

Song for Adele :-)

whys this a fucking tune

Cold play... is that you?

This song is better than the A-sides on Heathens Chemestry

This song touches my heart in so many ways. Reminds me of happy times with someone special. Definitely underrated and I think better than some their A-Sides

Contínua Gênio

Tem gente que fala perdeu sua criatividade

Oasis B sides are better than most other peoples entire careers.

all b sides are A sides 2 me

Quite simply my favorite Oasis song... When he finally played it live a dream of mine was fulfilled

I always come back to this from time to time.

Hitler's dream

Crazy to think my favorite Oasis song is a B Side. This song is so amazing

He's just perfect

What does shangri-la mean 😏

One word....beautiful

Noel is an Earth Angel.

One of my all time favourite Oasis/Noel tunes, amazingly beautiful ❤️

Would be better without the harmonies at the end. Just my opinion.

I used to listen to this song alot when I spent the summer at my grandparents house. I made a cd afterwards of everything i listened to. I cant remember if I put this on it. I mailed it to myself in a few years with a letter. Guess we shall see then.

Wonderful tribute to this great song and the man behind it, The Chief. How I love me some Noely G!

This and youve got the heart of a Star should have made it on the album

Listening to this 1 week clean.... struggling but finding inspiration

Sam Caton hopefully you stuck with it brother

Here's to my ex girlfriend. May god rest your beautiful soul even though your still alive unfortunately you will never change because your an idlers dream. <3

Love this song! Wish Noel smiled more. He has a beautiful grin

wtf?!! the man is a genius

My wedding song😍

Noel is best.

I'll meet you on a day that never ends. What a fuckin line. That's how I feel about my wife everyday. Noel is a fucking genius!!

noel sos plagio mi negra

“I I never did say that I wish I could
I never could pray cos it's just no good
I hope you don't break my heart of stone, I don't wanna scream out loud
And wake up on my own” - my fav lines. Maybe they’re describing me at the moment 😊 miss Oasis so much.

The pure genius that is Noel Gallagher.

The best "un produced" song he's ever done

Why oasis have so many song that bloody hits you hard in the heart.
Quite heartbreaking and beautiful

What a track, is this a B-side ? sounds like Noel post Oasis

Oasis b side from 2002, single was The Hindu Times.

I love the vocals, this guy was ahead of his time, thanks oasis

This song is about dreaming. About being lonely and wishing for the perfect love: You meet the perfect woman, nothing compares. You love her she loves you and life is perfect. Then you wake up and realise you were dreaming. You wake up alone and wonder if you'll ever find someone to love like that. 8 years ago I listened to this and cried because I'd had that dream may times and wondered the same thing. Three years later I met my fiancee and we are living the love story I dreamt of. I just listened to this and cried again... but this time because I know that I made it. There is someone out here for everyone. There's someone others who will love and appreciate you for who you are. All the things you think unlovable, they were find endearing. Be patient. They are out there and they are looking for you, too.

most likely false, but a nice little analysis :)

man what i feel this song say to me is exactly that

I can't see this song being about Meg somehow, more likely it's about Sara.

​@BabyFishMouth "it is no longer theirs and becomes the property of all who listen to it."
that's utter fucking nonsense, legally the person who owns the master of it is the property owner of it

Fuck off do you got piss in the eyes or what

The Jam English rose

Most amazing song I have ever heard! Awesome thanks so much to ask special friend for introducing me to it and Oasis!!!

the one that got away... girlfriend of two years. i still love her and she doesn't want to know me anymore... i can't even listen to this anymore. wherever you are i hope you're okay for what it's worth. and to Noel, fuck i wish i could write music like you you talented bastard!

Listened to this moments after they broke up.

I couldn't express the hurt I felt at the time and this song made me realise how much of a gifted band we had lost.

Am I the only one who thinks it's sexy hearing him inhale? Shang a ree lah!

Good😎

Godlike Genius???

Yet another song that should of been an A side.

the 23 people who dislike this are screaming out loud and waking up on their own.
its pure magic. arise SIR GOD.

Had this song playing as myself and my husband signed our wedding register love it perfect xx

Love this song! Finally decided to cover it. Even in 2017! Check it out my channel. Noel's songwriting inspires me greatly

manchesters finest init

i prefer liam

My heart it skips a beat when I behold
The light that's shining through your eyes of gold
From heavenly blood you seem to spring
From heavenly waters you can drink

I'll meet you on the day that never ends
I'll greet you in the way that heaven meant
You lay me down gently on the leaves
You cover me over in my sleep

I never did say that I wish I could
I never could pray cos it's just no good
I hope you don't break my heart of stone
I don't wanna scream out loud wake up on my own

And as I close my eyes
And the sky turns red
I realise just what you are
You're an idler's dream and you're singing shangri-la
Shangri-la
Shangri-la
Shangri-la

fucking tune man

beautiful song...

Shangri- La by The Kinks

Perfect

My favourite vocal performance by Noel. Perfection.

listen to the mate...

💜💜

just beautiful...

This is one of greatest songs ever written & it's relatively unknown. In some ways that makes it even more special. However, I believe it should be on his next album. The 🌎 needs to hear it. I know I've seen it mentioned in a comment before. That photo at the end is puzzling. Why 😂😅?

beautiful song

biblical

What a song 😉😉😉

Brilliant!

I want it on spotify!Now!

BUT WHERE IS STRAWBERRY-FIELDS I THINK FROM THE BEATLES SUNG BY NOEL?0

why this is not in an album?!?!?!

ora prendo tutte le b side degli oasis, le traduco e le incido. vuoi vedere che vendo più di tiziana ed emma? ahahahaha! noel god

My favorite song I've heard, that's coming from a ten year old

Was this ever released? such a nice song

Scott Anderson This was featured on the B-side of The Hindu Times single

A truly nice song. Quite an accomplished piece of music when you think of Oasis being the personification of all things lad. Although that last imagine of Noel smiling did break the sincerity of the song for me haha

Elijah Thomas its literary a Varied d chord in Piano

@Gruff Jones Well why don't you write a song like this if it's so easy ;)

@Jon Raggett a food critic doesn't have to cook a good steak

Z.T. PRIVATE AND TO MUCH WORK!
.

IDLERS DREAM IS NOT FOR ME, BUT IT'S YOUR BEST SONG

I love song, I love oasis

Great song... more please.

Piano seems to be sampled from some classic music track.

What makes you think that?

one of the best oasis songs

who played the piano? noel?

this song is recorded in 2002

Of course! I wasn't thinking. Can't seem to find anything about it online. Now I'm obsessed to find out. Could have been the Chief himself. Maybe Weller?

maybe Noel himself, cause I never see him sing without an instrument

I asked the Oasis group on Reddit and got this reply today "Just checked the liner notes for Hindu Times, it says "all keyboards on all tracks by Paul Stacey. Backing vocals on Idler's Dream by Paul Stacey".""

Sorted.

I thought Paul Stacey left the band after SOTSOG tour

This song should be longer. <3

A beautiful song but heartbreaking if you've ever had unrequited love.

Sums up how good oasis are that this was a b side
