The dawn was breaking... the world was waking...

Any dream will do.

(Lyrics in my head today:)

I closed my eyes,
drew back the curtain
To see for certain
what I thought I knew

Far far away,
someone was weeping
But the world was sleeping
Any dream will do

I wore my coat,
with golden lining
Bright colors shining,
wonderful and new
And in the east,
the dawn was breaking
And the world was waking
Any dream will do

A crash of drums,
a flash of light
My golden coat
flew out of sight
The colors faded into darkness
I was left alone

May I return
to the beginning
The light is dimming,
and the dream is too
The world and I,
we are still waiting
Still hesitating
Any dream will do

A crash of drums,
a flash of light
My golden coat flew out of sight
The colors faded into darkness
I was left alone

May I return
to the beginning
The light is dimming,
and the dream is too
The world and I,
we are still waiting
Still hesitating
Any dream will do
