"Moon River" is a song originally written for the movie "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and was performed by Audrey Hepburn. Kina Grannis, a singer-songwriter, covered the song in a more acoustic and chilled style. The lyrics depict a dreamer who is venturing towards their dreams and joining forces with another dreamer, or as the song puts it, their "huckleberry friend". The opening line, "Moon river, wider than a mile, I'm crossing you in style someday", suggests the vastness of the dreams and ambitions ahead. The dreamer refers to their companion as the "dream maker" and the "heartbreaker", indicating the admiration and emotional connection between them. It symbolizes the courage to follow their dreams, even if it means facing heartbreak or uncertainty along the way. The two drifters mentioned in the song are setting off on a journey to explore the world and embrace all its wonders. The line, "There's such a lot of world to see", expresses the vastness and opportunity that lies ahead for them. The reference to a "rainbow's end" represents their shared aspiration to find something beautiful and fulfilling. They believe that just around the bend, their dreams and goals are waiting for them. Overall, "Moon River" conveys a sense of determination, hope, and friendship as the dreamer embarks on a journey to chase their dreams alongside their beloved companion. The song's timeless lyrics and mellow melody evoke a feeling of striving for something greater and the beauty of shared ambitions.
