Lyrics
Once when I was young I had a dream
I dreamt I was a millionaire and lived a life of ease
I was locked up in a tower
chained to all my wealth and power
Had to give it all away just to be free
Now I never put my faith into a dream
Dreams are only meant for gypsies and for kings
Once when I was young I had a dream
I dreamt I was the biggest star this world had ever seen
I had no life of my own and I longed to be alone
So I kissed it all goodbye just to be free
Now I never put my faith into a dream
Dreams are only meant for gypsies and for kings.
Now my home is my inner spirit
And every day is a brighter day
And I take each day for what it is so my soul won't slip away
And I never put my faith into a dream
Dreams are only meant for gypsies and for kings
Now I never put my faith into a dream
Dreams are only meant for gypsies and for kings
