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 – ha-ha! –
With golden lining,
Brrright colors shining,
Wonderful and… new!
And in the East (And in the East!)
The dawn was breaking, (A-a-aaah!)
The world was waking – (A-aaah!)
Any dream will do!
Guitar!!!
(A crash of drums! A flash of light!)
(My golden coat flew out of sight!)
The colors faded into darkness –
I was left alone!.. (A-a-a-aaah!..)
May I return (May I return!)
To the beginning? (A-a-aaah!)
The light is dimming (A-aaah!)
And the dream is too… (The dream is too!)
The world and I – (The world and I!)
We are still waiting, (A-a-aaah!)
Still he-he-hesitating… (A-aaah!)
Any dream will do!
Go on!!!
(A crash of drums! A flash of light!)
(My golden coat flew out of sight!)
The colors faded into darkness –
I was left alone!
Any dream!!!
(The world and I! We are still waiting!)
(Still hesitating! Any dream will do!)
Still hesitati-ing –
Any dream!
Will!
