Story Behind The Song

My friend (a composer and producer) was really depressed and had started to think that nothing was ever going to come of his music. I wrote this song to encourage him and let him know he wasn't alone. Having other like-minded people around you - the 'Company of Dreamers' - is such an inspiration (a lot like being on Broadjam.com!)and it can keep you going when you seem to be hitting brick walls instead of finding opportunities.

Song Description

So many of us create music and dream dreams thinking that nothing is ever going to happen. But hope is our greatest weapon: believe that you will make it and let that belief drive everything you do. And remember that you're not alone - there are so many dreamers all around you. Never, EVER lose hope!

Lyrics

When you feel the world's not on your side
When every dream breaks down before your eyes
When holding on's the hardest thing to face
Don't give up
Your hope's enough

[chorus]
When the storm is raging over you
And all your dreams seem like they won't come true
Don't give up: we're chasing rainbows too
Don't ever stop believing
You're in the company of dreamers

I don't know what brought me here tonight
I think at last I felt the time was right
So take my hand and dance by candlelight
Don't give up
Your hope's enough

[repeat chorus]

There's no use in turning back this time
The barriers are only in your mind
Turn around and suddenly you'll see
There are millions of us waiting just to see you catch your dream

[repeat chorus]

Don't ever stop believing
You're in the company of dreamers
