Tomiko Van Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you're fast asleep
In dreams you will lose your heartaches
Whatever you wish for you keep
Have faith in your dreams and someday
Your rainbow will come smiling through
No matter how your heart is grieving
The dream that you wish will come true
