Wake up and dream about
The plans you have in store for you
But keep in mind
It's not just what you do
But what you do it for-and who
There are roads to discover
There are stories yet to be told
As you see the big picture
Just beginning to unfold (so)

Break down the barriers but
Don't bend the rules
Never forget your roots
As you head for something new
Ride through the shades of desire
Letting the light be seen
And he'll steer the heart in the
Pursuit of the dream

It's alright to find yourself
Thinking now and then
About the way you want your life to be
Anticipating what lies
Just around the bend
Can't wait to see

Comes the time of decision
Some you dodge and some you should face
As you see the big picture
There will be some dues to pay (so)

Break down the barriers but
Don't bend the rules
Never forget your roots
As you head for something new
Ride through the shades of desire
Letting the light be seen
And he'll steer the heart in the
Pursuit of the dream

Wake up and dream about
The plans you have in store for you
But keep in mind
It's not just what you do
But what you do it for-and who

There are choices that build you
Choices that will make you fall
All part of the big picture
One day you will see it all

Break down the barriers but
Don't bend the rules
Never forget your roots
As you head for something new
Ride through the shades of desire
Letting the light be seen
And he'll steer the heart in the
Pursuit of the dream
