FOR THE DREAM

Craig Andrew Browne

One day I’ll be singing with ten thousand of my friends

A wondrous sea of faces

Joined by common feelings

And holding fast to love and hope —

And all that these defend

And all that these defend.

Oh, one day I’ll be ringing, the nation’s wake up bell

And I’ve imagined all that this would mean

And I would give it all for the dream

Yeh, I would give it all for the dream

Yeh, I would give it all for the dream.

Now, some will think me simple

“Oh yeh, he’s a pollyanna fool”

But I’d rather polarise than not be seen

So I will give it all for the dream.

One day I’ll be singing with ten thousand of my friends

Asking you, to raise your hands

Make a change, if only tiny

For the barely breathing state of grace —

We must find again and save

We must find again and save

Oh come on raise your voices and set all the people free

Can you imagine all that this would mean?

Well, I would give it all for the dream

Yeh, I would give it all for the dream

I would give it all

This is my wake up call

I would give it all for the dream.
