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
(I wore my coat)
With golden lining
(ah-ah-ah)
Bright colours shining
(ah-ah)
Wonderful and new

And in the east
(and in the east)
The dawn was breaking
(ah-ah-ah)
And the world was waking
(ah-ah)
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
(may I return)
To the beginning
(ah-ah-ah)
The light is dimming,
(ah-ah)
And the dream is too

The world and I,
(the world and I)
We are still waiting
(ah-ah-ah)
Still hesitating
(ah-ah)
Any dream will do

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
(may I return)
To the beginning
(ah-ah-ah)
The light is dimming,
(ah-ah)
And the dream is too

The world and I
(the world and I)
We are still waiting
(ah-ah-ah)
Still hesitating
(ah-ah)
Any dream will do

(Any dream, any dream will, any dream, any dream will do)

Any dream will do

(Any dream, any dream will, any dream, any dream will do)

Any dream will do
