Dreams Go By
There you stand in your dungarees
Lookin all grown up and so very pleased
When you write your poems they have so much to say
When you speak your dreams it takes my breath away
Ya know I wanna be a ball player
A regular sluggin fool
But I guess our dreams must wait awhile
Until we finish school

And so you and I
We watch our years go by
We watch our sweet dreams fly far away (away) but maybe someday
I don't know when
But we will dream again
And we'll be happy then until our time just drifts away

There you stand in your wedding dress
You're so beautiful I must confess
I m so proud you have chosen me
When a doctor is what you wanna be
Ya know I wanna be a painter girl
A real artistic snob
But I guess we'll have our children first
You'll find a home I'll get a job
And so you and I
We watch our years go by
We watch our sweet dreams fly far away (away) but maybe someday
I don't know when
But we will dream again
And we'll be happy then until our time just drifts away

Listen the seasons passing, listen to the wind blow
Listen to the children laughing, where do broken dreams go?

There you stand in your tailored suit
So many years gone by, but your still so cute
You take the car to go and meet the bus
When our grandchildren come to visit us
And you say you shoula been a ballerina babe
There are songs I shoulda sung
But I guess our dreams have come and gone
You're supposed to dream when you are young

And so you and I
We watch our years go by
We watch our sweet dreams fly far away (away) but maybe someday
I don't know when
But we will dream again
And we'll be happy then until our time just drifts away
