Lyrics

WHEN YOU HAVE A DREAM

I go from place to place
To find a friendly face
I'm always on my own
A child of grace
A lonely heart without a home

I think about my life
And worries I have known
Then hope for better days
This road I chose
Has changed my life in many ways

Too many dreams, like falling stars
May disappear into the night
But if my world should fall apart
My morning star will still be bright

So when you have a dream
Go tell it to the world
Don't keep it in your mind
Then one day soon
Real happiness I'm sure you'll find

Too many dreams, like falling stars
May disappear into the night
But if your world should fall apart
Your morning star will still be bright

So when you have a dream
Go tell it to the world
Don't keep it in your mind
Then one day soon
True happiness I'm sure you'll find
Yes one day soon
Real happiness, you'll surely find
