017 - Any Dream Will Do
Verse 1
I closed my eyes (T+B I closed my eyes) , drew back the curtain,
To see for certain what I thought I knew.
Far, far away (T+B Far, far away), someone was weeping,
But the world was sleeping.
Any dream will do.
Verse 2
I wore my coat (T+B I wore my coat) , with golden lining (Sop: ah-a-ah)
Bright colours shining (Sop: ah-a-ah), wonderful and new.
And in the east (T+B And in the east), the dawn was breaking, (Sop: ah-a-ah)
The world was waking (Sop: ah-a-ah)
Any dream will do.
Brisdge
A crash of drums, a flash of light,
My golden coat flew out of sight,
The colours faded into darkness
I was left alone.
Verse 3
May I return (T+B May I return) to the beginning, (Sop: ah-a-ah)
The light is dimming (Sop: ah-a-ah) and the dream is too
The world and I (T+B The world and I) we are still waiting, (Sop: ah-a-ah)
Still hesitating (Sop: ah-a-ah)
Any dream will do.
Bridge repeat
A crash of drums, a flash of light,
My golden coat flew out of sight,
The colours faded into darkness
I was left alone.
Verse 3
May I return (T+B May I return) to the beginning, (Sop: ah-a-ah)
The light is dimming (Sop: ah-a-ah) and the dream is too
The world and I (T+B The world and I) we are still waiting, (Sop: ah-a-ah)
Still hesitating (Sop: ah-a-ah)
Any dream will do.
