Lyrics

Drea’Man

Intro
Mired down in the days of our lives
Got no time to dream, gotta pay for this time

Your life just seems to pass you by
Your dreams seem evermore out of reach

It’s time to stop, to begin again
It’s time you start to live your dream

Verse
Though your dreams may sometimes fade
they’re never really gone
Like a childhood story you treasure
re-awake them, your heart’s the way

Don’t accept the “NO’s” you hear
and echo on their doubt and fear
Turn their world upside down
share the joy you’ve found

Refrain
It’s time to take your dreams
down off the shelf
It’s time to read your heart a story

Chorus
Dare to dream
Share your dream
Live your dream

Verse
I can see it in your eyes
I can hear it in your voice
You’ve got your dreams
you believe in

Refrain
Share your vision with us all
for our world needs your light
'Cause dreams are made of love
I know that’s why we’re here

Refrain
It’s time to take your dreams down off the shelf
It’s time to read your heart a story

Chorus
Dare to dream
Share your dream
Live your dream

Outro
It’s time to take your dreams
down off the shelf
It’s time to read your heart a story

Dare to dream
Share your dream
Live your dream
