I've got a guitar
I've got a song
I'm gonna sing it
All night long

It's a song about freedom
About swimming against the tide
About doing whatever you want
Every single day of your life

About following a dream
I'm following a dream
Trying to make a dream come true
Dream come true

Deep in the city
In a cold and lonely room
A widow and her daughter
She's singing her a tune

It's a song about freedom
About swimming against the tide
About doing whatever you want
Every single day of your life

About following a dream
I'm following a dream
Trying to make a dream come true
Dream come true

Sometimes I watch the world go by
Like I was watching from outside
Nothing can hurt me
The feeling sets me free
There's music in the air
I feel it everywhere

A soldier in a compound
In the heat of Lebanon
He's heard the death bells ringing
He holds on to a song

It's a song about freedom
About swimming against the tide
About doing whatever you want
Every single day of your life

About following a dream
I'm following a dream
Trying to make a dream come true
Dream come true
