Any Dream Will Do

I closed my eyes

Drew back the curtain

To see for certain

What I thought I knew



Far, far away

Someone was weeping

But, the world was sleeping

Any dream will do



I wore my coat

With golden lining

Bright colors shining

Wonderful and new

And in the east

The dawn was breaking

And the world was waking

Any dream will do



A crash of drums

A flash of light

My golden coat flew out of sight

The colors faded into darkness

I was left alone



May I return

To the beginning

The light is dimming

And the dream is, too

The world and I

We are still waiting

Still hesitating

Any dream will do
