Those Good Old Dreams - Carpenters

As a child I was known for make believing

All alone I created fantasies

As I grew people called it self-deceiving

But my heart helped me hold the memories

As I walk through the world I find around me

Something new yet familiar’s in the air, I feel it everywhere

Like a child’s eyes on a Christmas night

I’m looking at you now, finding answers to my prayers

It’s a new day for those good old dreams

One by one it seems they’re coming true

Here’s the morning that my heart had seen

Here’s the morning that just had to come through

Same old stage but what a change of scene

No more dark horizons only blue

It’s a new day for those good old dreams

All my life I’ve dreamed of loving you

You’re a spark of a long forgotten fire

You’re a touch of a slowly growing wind

You’re a taste of the ever changing seasons

Telling me there are some things that don’t end

We have left all the darkness far behind us

All those hopes that we held along the way, have made it to this day

Like an old love song, gone for much too long

You hear it once again and it carries you away

It’s a new day for those good old dreams

One by one it seems they’re coming true

Here’s the morning that my heart had seen

Here’s the morning that just had to come through

Same old stage but what a change of scene

No more dark horizons only blue

It’s a new day for those good old dreams

All my life I’ve dreamed of you

It’s a new day for those good old dreams

And it’s all because of you
