Steve Forbert About A Dream
Well dogs chase cars, and men chase dreams.
The dog is the more practical it seems.
But a dream can help a person, to get up and out of bed,
And for that I still believe there is a lot that can be said -
About a dream, up in your mind.
Something you wish, hoping to find.
About a dream, something you want.
Maybe you need, maybe you don't.
About a dream.
Well seeds take root, but fruit takes time.
And a dream can't grow if it dies on the vine.
So you gotta keep it going, with a steady ray of sun,
And a daily drop of rain, and you could well get something done -
About a dream, up in your mind.
Something you wish, hoping to find.
About a dream, something you want.
Maybe you need, maybe you don't.
About a dream.
All in favor say yeah, (yeah),
All in favor say fine, (fine).
Take your dream anywhere, it's all in your mind.
Well you chase yours, and I'll chase mine,
And I hope our dreams meet up on the boulevard sometime.
And I hope we both are happy, if the dreams we dream come true,
And just the same we don't just end up bitter, sad, and blue -
About a dream, up in your mind.
Something you wish, hoping to find.
About a dream, something you want.
Maybe you need, maybe you don't.
About a dream.
