| Born too soon for a future
|
| Born too poor for love
|
| Born too far from the warmth of the sun
|
| Or a place in the heavens above
|
| It’s a cold, cold night in the circus
|
| A colder night in the zoo
|
| Light up the fires down in Carton Town
|
| Where the feet and the fingers are blue
|
| I said keep on dreaming
|
| Hey, hey, keep on dreaming
|
| I hear talk of chances
|
| Chances gone to waste
|
| Well, it’s hard to see opportunity
|
| With a hand drawn across your face
|
| We never chose the doctor
|
| We never chose the school
|
| We never chose the family
|
| Or the winning smile of the fool
|
| I said keep on dreaming
|
| Keep on dreaming
|
| Like the life you have is the life you want
|
| Keep on dreaming
|
| Some of us dream in the morning
|
| Some of us simply will curse
|
| Others will put their defenses to work
|
| Protecting the bad from the worse
|
| A band plays in the valley
|
| A nightmare in every head
|
| And people all sing hallelujah
|
| When they mean heaven help us instead
|
| Ah, keep on dreaming
|
| Keep on dreaming
|
| Like the life you have is the life you want
|
| Keep on dreaming
|
| Ah, keep on dreaming
|
| Keep on dreaming
|
| Like the life you have is the life you want
|
| Keep on dreaming
|
| Keep on dreaming
|
| Keep on dreaming
|
| Like the life you have is the life you want
|
| Keep on dreaming
|
| Keep on dreaming
|
| Keep on dreaming
|
| Like the life you have is the life you want
|
| Keep on dreaming |
