Got a dream, got a mask
Got a beat, got a task
Got to go very far
Got to find out who we are
Got a roll, got a soul
Got a past that’s gone at last
Got a place we cannot see
Got a place in this mystery
Got a dream, so make it real
Born with orders that are sealed
To find them out you must kneel
And all will be revealed
Like the sacred in the dust
Like what you won’t do and what you must
And the sun illuminates the heart and the fate
For the Dreamtiger coming near
All those dreams that you fear
Face it darling, well let it go
And so touch your immortal soul
Dream a dream just for you
Dream a dream and make it true
Don’t know when the storm will roll
But get yee ready darlin’ ready your soul
Got to move with the breeze
Like a butterfly through the trees
As a tiger beyond control
So the path of the limitless soul
Got a dream, so take a chance
Got to rock and got to dance
Got to roll, roll your soul
Over and over and over
Got to move with the breeze
Like a butterfly through the trees
As the tiger beyond control
So the path of the limitless soul
For the Dreamtiger coming near
All those dreams that you fear
Face it darling, well let it go
And so touch your immortal soul
Yeah baby, got to dream
Darlin’, darlin’, got to dream
Baby got to dream
Yeah baby, got to dream
Make your dream just for you
See the sacred in the dust
Got to do what you must
Yeah baby,
You know you’ve got to dream
That’s all you’ve got to do is dream
Yeah baby, got to dream…
