Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My dream is to be a lover
I don't mean sex in a can
My dream is to be a brother
Not the kind that separates man

dreams do come true, yeah
Dreams do come true, yeah
my dream is to see changes
In the heart of man
I want to see salvation
To anyone who can

dreams do come true, yeah




Dreams do come true, yeah
Dream on
