(Harley Allen/Clive Westlake)



The plan I never had a lot but I had plans

They took me down the road to where I am

I know now I'd do it all again



The dream was always just a step ahead of me

Too far to touch but close enough to see

There was always somewhere else I had to be

The dream, there's nothing more important than the dream

Without one nothing matters much it seems

It always keeps me goin where the winds of doubts are blowin

What always keeps me goin is the dream



The song it takes too many years to write the song

Where every word is just where it belongs

You wonder why on earth it takes so long

You shine if only for the very shortest time

The latest thing in melody and rhyme

And in the end you'd give up your last dime for



The dream was always just a step ahead of me

Too far to touch but close enough to see

There was always somewhere else I had to be

The dream, there's nothing more important than the dream

Without one nothing matters much it seems

It always keeps me goin where the winds of doubts are blowin

What always keeps me goin is the dream



Oh, it always keeps me goin

When the winds of doubt are blowin

What always keeps me goin is the dream
