everybody has a dream

while in these days of quiet desperation

as i wander through the world in which i live

i search everywhere for some new inspiration

but it's more than cold reality can give

if i need a cause for celebration

or a comfort i can use to ease my mind

i rely on my imagination

and i dream of an imaginary time

i know that everybody has a dream

everybody has a dream

and this is my dream

my own

just to be at home

and to be all alone.with you

if i believe in all the words i'm saying

and if a word from you can bring a better day

then all i have are these games that i've been playing

to keep my hope from crumbling away

so let me lie and let me go on sleeping

and i will lose myself in palaces of sand

and all the fantasies that i have been keeping

will make the empty hours easier to stand

i know that everybody has a dream

everybody has a dream

and this is my dream

my own

just to be at home

and to be all alone.with you
