Dream
Dom Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I had a dream that one day I'd sing at the fox
That's been my dream for some time now
Walking each day to my job I have at the fox
Wishing to sing on the stage some day

Name shining up in lights
The signs so bright
You can see it down the way
Parade of people lining up
And it's just my luck
For my show that day

It's my dream, what a dream. I can't help myself but sing
Had this dream, still my dream. Working hard to make my dream, come true
Dream come true

Night after night. Selling seats for shows at the fox
Watching the days fade away
Standing in back, at the shows they have at the fox
Just thinking of what; I would say Someday

"Excuse me but I must say
That today's the day
I can finally spread my wings
Been dreaming everyday
Just to grace this stage"
Then my choir would sing

It's my dream, what a dream. I'm happy I could scream!

Had this dream, still my dream. Hope someday to make my dream, come true
Dream come true
