|
We were 18 and 19 |
|
And paired off on |
|
Saturday nights |
|
Down in the basement a big killer stereo |
|
Dimmer switch on the lights |
|
Jane was a dancer, and |
|
Paul was a drummer |
|
Christine was a doctor to be |
|
Life stretched before us |
|
Like one endless summer |
|
And that brings us back to me |
|
I was the gypsy |
|
We sang as we stood at the gate |
|
We were ready to take the world on |
|
Four young soldiers of fate |
|
Couldn't wait to go right every wrong |
|
Wearing our passion, our hopes |
|
And our t-shirts and jeans |
|
Dancin' with dreams |
|
Ten years ago |
|
May, we all drank to the future |
|
And all went our separate ways |
|
I packed up to go with my clothes and piano |
|
And music and something to say |
|
I hear Paul owns a drum shop |
|
Jane teaches ballet and |
|
Christine's an |
|
OBGYNI'm writing songs that |
|
I sing in a cafe |
|
And sometimes |
|
I write about them |
|
I miss my friends |
|
We sang as we stood at the gate |
|
We were ready to take the world on |
|
Four young soldiers of fate |
|
Couldn't wait to go right every wrong |
|
Wearing our passion, our hopes |
|
And our t-shirts and jeans |
|
And dancin' with dreams |
|
Before reality threw up the roadblocks |
|
And nothin' was out of our reach |
|
Time flowed smooth as a waltz |
|
So it seemed |
|
We're dancin' with dreams |
|
We sang as we stood at the gate |
|
We were ready to take the world on |
|
Four young soldiers of fate |
|
Couldn't wait to go right every wrong |
|
Wearing our passion, our hopes |
|
And our t-shirts and jeans |
|
Dancin' with dreams |
