Those Good Old Dreams
As a child I was known for make believin'
All alone I created fantasies
As I grew people called it self-deceiving
But my heart helped me hold the memories
As I walk through the world I find around me
Something new yet familiar's in the air
I feel it everywhere
Like a child's eyes on a Christmas night
I'm looking at you now
Findin' answers to my prayers
It's a new day for those good old dreams
One by one it seems they're comin' true
Here's the morning that my heart had seen
Here's the morning that just had to come through
Same old stage but what a change of scene
No more dark horizons, only blue
It's a new day for those good old dreams
All my life I've dreamed of lovin' you
You're a spark of a long forgotten fire
You're a touch of a slowly growin' wind
You're a taste of the ever-changing seasons
Tellin' me there are some things that don't end
We have left all the darkness far behind us (behind us)
All those hopes that we had along the way
Have made it to this day
Like an old love song gone for much too long
You hear it once again
And it carries you away
It's a new day for those good old dreams
One by one it seems they're comin' true
Here's the morning that my heart had seen
Here's the morning that just had to come through
Same old stage but what a change of scene
No more dark horizons, only blue
It's a new day for those good old dreams
All my life I've dreamed of you I've dreamed of you
It's a new day for those good old dreams
And it's all because of you
All alone I created fantasies
As I grew people called it self-deceiving
But my heart helped me hold the memories
As I walk through the world I find around me
Something new yet familiar's in the air
I feel it everywhere
Like a child's eyes on a Christmas night
I'm looking at you now
Findin' answers to my prayers
It's a new day for those good old dreams
One by one it seems they're comin' true
Here's the morning that my heart had seen
Here's the morning that just had to come through
Same old stage but what a change of scene
No more dark horizons, only blue
It's a new day for those good old dreams
All my life I've dreamed of lovin' you
You're a spark of a long forgotten fire
You're a touch of a slowly growin' wind
You're a taste of the ever-changing seasons
Tellin' me there are some things that don't end
We have left all the darkness far behind us (behind us)
All those hopes that we had along the way
Have made it to this day
Like an old love song gone for much too long
You hear it once again
And it carries you away
It's a new day for those good old dreams
One by one it seems they're comin' true
Here's the morning that my heart had seen
Here's the morning that just had to come through
Same old stage but what a change of scene
No more dark horizons, only blue
It's a new day for those good old dreams
All my life I've dreamed of you I've dreamed of you
It's a new day for those good old dreams
And it's all because of you
