dreamcoat

"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 colours 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 colours 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 deram will do."
