Simon And Garfunkel, "Bridge Over Troubled Water"
Misheard Lyrics:
Sail on, silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are memories.
Original Lyrics:
Sail on, silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way.
I like the misheard line better. "All your dreams are memories" sounds as if everything you had ever hoped for has already come true and life is better than you could have imagined. By comparison, "All your dreams are on their way" sounds pedestrian for a writer of Simon's capability.
