Everybody Has A Dream Lyrics

Artist: Billy Joel (Buy Billy Joel CDs)
Album: The Stranger

While in these days of quiet desperation
As I wander through the world in which I live
I search everywhere for some new inspiration
But it's more than cold reality can give
If I need a cause for celebration
Or a comfort I can use to ease my mind
I rely on my imagination
And I dream of an imaginary time

CHORUS
I know that everybody has a dream
Everybody has a dream
And this is my dream, my own
Just to be at home
And to be all alone...with you

If I believe in all the words I'm saying
And if a word from you can bring a better day
Then all I have are these games that I've been playing
To keep my hope from crumbling away
So let me lie and let me go on sleeping
And I will lose myself in palaces of sand
And all the fantasies that I have been keeping
Will make the empty hours easier to stand

CHORUS

a prime example of billy joel's amazing versatility in songwriting and vocal skills. his voice sounds a lot like it does now that he's older, even though he's about 27-28 when he recorded it. he sounds mature...
