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 colours shining

Wonderful and new

And in the east

The dawn was breaking

The world was waking

Any dream will do



A crash of drums, a flash of light

My golden cloak flew out of sight

The colours 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



A crash of drums, a flash of light

My golden cloak flew out of sight

The colours 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
