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

And the world was waking

Any dream will do

A crash of drums, a flash of light

My golden coat 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 coat 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
