You are free to choose whether this song is a celebration of the innocence of childhood or a lament for the fact that the world is unlikely to permit that innocence to endure. Whichever you choose may say more about you than it does about the song.

DREAM ON So peacefully there in your bed Wondering what are the dreams and the schemes Going on inside your head.
Do you float on the clouds with the moon for your light? Or ride on the back of an eagle in flight? Sleep on, let your dreams take you high in the sky Let the world pass you by tonight.
Dream on, little dreamer, dream while you can One day you'll wake up and you'll be a man You're still just a child – your spirit is free Dream on, dream on for me.
Tomorrow awaits and once more You'll wake to the new morning light You'll have forgotten the places you've been The world that you've seen in the night.
Try to remember, try not to forget The real world is hard and you're not ready yet Dream on, while you're dreaming I'll always be near There's nothing to fear tonight.
Dream on, little dreamer, dream while you can One day you'll wake up and you'll be a man You're still just a child - your spirit is free Dream on, dream on for me. |
