I think ayus dream is something that lasts forever. Permanence.

I get the sense that Ayu has experienced having many dreams, or rather dreamlike moments, but the instant she would take notice of them and as well her happiness as a result of them, the dream would leave her or disappear forever.

That’s why now she often sings about such things as “the continuous dream” or “a never ending dream,” so that she may deliver exactly what she never had to her fans. Its all the more tragic when you think about how her hearing loss and vocal problems have threatened to strip away all of that.

She doesn’t want to be someone’s dream that ends, because she knows first hand the pain of wanting desperately to hold onto a dream, yet being utterly incapable of stopping it from slipping through the cracks in your fingers.
