Dreamland
Third World Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's a land that I have heard about
So far across the sea
There's a land that I have heard about
So far across the sea
To have you all, my dreamland
Would be like Heaven to me
To have you all, my dreamland
Would be like Heaven to me
We'll get our breakfast from the tree
We'll get our honey from the bees
We'll take a ride on the waterfalls
And all the glories, we'll have them all
And we'll live together on that dreamland
And have so much fun
And we'll live together on that dreamland
And have so much fun
Oh, what a time that will be
Oh yes, we'll wait, wait, wait and see

We'll count the stars up in the sky
And surely we'll never die
