City Of Dreams Lyrics

Here where you are standing

The dinosaurs did a dance

The indians told a story

Now it has come to pass



The Indians had a legend

The Spaniards lived for gold

The white man came and killed them

But they haven't really gone



We live in the city of dreams

We drive on the highway of fire

Should we awake

And find it gone

Remember this, our favorite town



From germany and Europe

And Southern U.S.A.

They made this little town here

That we live in to this day



The children of the white man

Saw Indians on TV

And heard about the legend

How their city was a dream



We live in the city of dreams

We drive on the highway of fire

Should we awake

And find it gone

Remember this, our favorite town



The Civil War is over

And World War One and Two

If we can live together

The dream it might come true



Underneath the concrete

The dream is still alive

A hundred million lifetimes

A world that never dies



We live in the city of dreams

We drive on the highway of fire

Should we awake

And find it gone

Remember this, our favorite town
