Dancing In My Dreams
Tina Turner · Wildest Dreams [1996]
I've been running since my youth
Tired of the running
I will stand here till you see
I am you and you are me
Tired of the running
There really is no difference when you look beneath the skin
Someday I know we'll go beyond this world we're living in
Chorus:
Now when I lay me down to sleep
I will be dancing in my dreams
Seeing the way it all should be
I will be dancing
Now when I lay me down to sleep
I will be dancing in my dreams
Seeing the way it all should be
I will be dancing
Dancing in my dreams
There's no hiding in the dark
From the beating of my heart
It's getting louder
Just as long as we believe
The truth will set us free
It's getting louder
All that really matters is the light in your face
In you I see the longing of the whole human race
Chorus
On and on the story goes
Or it's the passing of the torch
With one small voice it all begins
Then there are millions more
Millions more
Chorus
