Dream On Lyrics by Ben Rector

The Joy of Music

2022

[Verse 1]
Do you ever get scared?
Do you ever get sad?
Did you forget the childhood dreams that you had?
Hoped it’d be better but things turned out bad and all went wrong

[Verse 2]
You don’t have to climb mountains or walk on the moon
To fill up your heart like a great big balloon
If you can't sleep at night just remember this tune
And sing along

[Chorus]
Dream on
Dream on
Even when you’re afraid all your dreams may be gone
Just dream on
Dream on
When the world says you’re crazy just tell them they’re wrong and dream on

[Verse 3]
When I was younger I played make believe
Now when I close my eyes I just fall asleep
If you live long enough life will make you believe that they're gone

[Chorus]
Dream on
Dream on
Even when you’re afraid all your dreams may be gone
Just dream on
Dream on
When the world says you’re crazy just tell them they’re wrong and dream on

[Bridge]
Dream on
Dream on
To infinity and far beyond
Maybe they’ll take you fabulous places
Maybe you’ll wake up right where you belong

[Chorus]
Dream on
Dream on
Even when you’re afraid all your dreams may be gone
Just dream on
Dream on
When the world says you’re crazy just tell them they’re wrong
When the world says you’re crazy just tell them they’re wrong and dream on
