Lyrics

Gamble on our Dreams

Do you recall when we were young
Our hearts were full the world was fun
We'd dance until the dawn light struck our souls

Still the winters were so cold
As we started growing old
And too quickly we had to settle into our roles

But oh the stars shone so bright
Over the place where you and me
Shared a kiss and shared a drink
Intoxicated by our revelry

We reached up
To grab hold of
The prize we could now see
It was only when
We got it that
we knew it was time to gamble on our dreams

Soon the years they flew on by
As we worked hard and tried to shine
But still a longIng lingered in our minds

Until finally there came a day
That we tired of all these games we played
And had to leave the falsehoods far behind

But oh the air was electric to breathe
As we set out to be what we can be
To follow our hearts and make a start
Towards the source of our ecstasy

There were the times
We had our trials
Trying to be what we could be
Still we carried on
And looked beyond
Our current state to gamble on our dreams

And now that we can look back
Or how we escaped societies trap
While others let it catch them and take hold

We feel so fine we feel so free
A lot like when we used to be
Young before the pressures took their toil

But oh the night is all so fair
As we dance together you and me
Living our life knowing it's right
Loving it in all it's mystery

To be the ones
That rise above
Is as precious as it can be
And when we die
We'll know we tried
Our best attempt to gamble on our dreams
