lyrics
(Chorus)
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
I travel the world
And the seven seas,
Everybody's looking for something
(Verse 1)
Yeah they came from lands afar
Drawn to a distant star
Start their life, escape the crime
Pictures from another time
Brought their hope to find the dream
A better life, so it seemed
They lit the flame for all to see
Torch now passed to you and me
Take this light and start anew
Now we're called to pay what’s due
Pay the price or bear the cost
Make it count, no moment lost
Brick by brick, day by day
Build this life in our own way
Find the strength to meet the need
“Raise all boats”, becomes our creed
(Chorus)
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
I travel the world
And the seven seas,
Everybody's looking for something
(Verse 2)
Raise all boats, float the tide
Raise the roof, show our pride
Raise the bar, take the stand
Blind like Ray, still lead the band
Band of brothers, sisters too
Lifted from a different crew
Sift the old to get the new
Open doors, let them through
Earn the keep, no free ride
Set the pace, keep the stride
Strength of will, fortified
Then the dream is glorified
Got the chance… to belong
Cue the band, start the song
All those critics, proven wrong
Hold your head up, moving on
(Bridge)
Hold your head up, moving on
Keep your head up, moving on
Hold your head up, moving on
Keep your head up, moving on
Hold your head up, moving on
Keep your head up, moving on
Hold your head up, moving on
Keep your head up, moving on
(Chorus)
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
I travel the world
And the seven seas,
Everybody's looking for something
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
I travel the world
And the seven seas,
Everybody's looking for something
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
I travel the world
And the seven seas,
Everybody's looking for something
