Lyrics

I know that you know
The earth is alive
I know that you know
Its love will survive

Is this a dream
Or is this the only thing
That I can give to you

CHORUS
Dream on, dream on
Singing dream on

Waisting away all the hours of your day
While you dream of a Prince
Who'll come to carry you away
Your holdin the key
To the things that you see
But your focus has gone
To the dawn of the scene

I know that you
Understand when I say
That its all that I can do
Is dream on
Singin dream on

I know that you know its true
I see you know it too
Is this a dream
Or is this the only thing
That I can give to you
Dream on
Singin dream on

From the snow covered peaks
To the rugged coastline
And the streams and rivers
That bend and entwine
To the glass covered lakes
That reflect your time
To the cultures that have come
And the battles they have won
To the dreams and aspirations
Of almost everyone
And to the stars that cover you at night

Dream on
You know its true
When I say to you
Its all that I can do
Is dream on
