A Dream Worth Keeping
Sheena Easton Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just imagine me and all this will appear
You can keep this moment all your life
Forever near
A dream worth keeping
When your feeling lost I'll be your star
Just reach out and touch me no matter where you are
Just keep my star in sight
[Chorus]
I believe we found a dream that's worth keeping
For more than just a day
And even though the winds of change may come sweeping
It's still a dream worth keeping
So don't let it fade away
So don't let it fade away
Maybe you'll be in some distant land
Feelin' all alone, but I'll be close at hand
And every time you see a rainbow
Paint the sky behind the rain
You'll be here again
[Chorus]
Some day you might be thinking
Life has passed you by
Spirits might be sinking
Hope in short supply
That's the reason why
That's the reason why
I know this dream's worth keeping
As long as it will stay
Even when you see the darkness come creepin'
A dream worth keeping
Don't let it fade away
