Lyrics

Verse 1;
Life is what you make it,
I hear the old timers say.
Born into a station
we learn our ancestors way.
Minds open wide with
dreams flying high
We spread our wings in flight.
Where we land in this wide world, may the heavens guide.
Chorus;
If I had one dream per life,
and if I could,
If I could make that dream take flight,
I wish I may, I wish I might,
I'd dream a dream, a dream for you, with all of my might.
With all of my life.
verse 2;
If there is just one dream,
a parent wants for their child,
Is an easier softer way to go the extra mile.
Before you know it they've settled down,
rearing kids their own.
Educated, loved and guided on,
so the story goes.
Chorus;
If I had one dream per life,
and if I could,
If I could make that dream take flight,
I wish I may, I wish I might,
I'd dream a dream, a dream for you, with all of my might.
With all of my life.
Interlude;
Dream free my love,
Heaven's open above for you.
If I could dream, dream it to be, I'd dream for you.
Chorus;
If I had one dream per life,
and if I could,
If I could make that dream take flight,
I wish I may, I wish I might,
I'd dream a dream, a dream for you, with all of my might.
With all of my life.
