Lyrics
If it gives you the energy to
get you out of bed
And the daily motivation to chase the demons from your head
If it gives your life direction through the darkness and the fog
And the fortitude to stand your ground when the critics say you're wrong
If it sends you on a journey
If it gets you off the couch
If it fills your heart with purpose
Then you can face your doubts, and
Chorus [shadow chorus]
Dreams are real
[wanna be a dancer, wanna be a soldier, wanna be a movie star]
Dreams are real
[gonna cure cancer, stop world hunger, ride the wave soooo far]
It's who you are
[wanna be a dancer, wanna be a soldier, wanna be a movie star]
It's what you feel
[gonna cure cancer, stop world hunger, ride the wave soooo far]
Your dreams are real
They will say it's time to let it go, and do the daily grind
And join the cast of robots who don't know they lost their minds
They will never learn the meaning, they will never hear the call
And it's a better life to dream and fail than never dream at all
If it sets your heart to racing
If it gives your mood a rise
If it sets your brain in overdrive
Or fire in your eyes, then
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Keep your dreams alive
Keep your dreams alive
Keep your dreams alive
Your soul will survive
Verse: Na na na na na na-na-na, na-na-na-na na-na [4 lines]
Repeat First Pre-chorus, then Chorus, then repeat Chorus again
