On a dark December morning 
When the sun refused to shine 
Spent another sleepless night 
Got so much on my mind 
Think I finally know what's wrong 
I think I've gotta leave this place behind 
So I said "wake up, Linda, 
I've had a dream 
I dreamed we moved away from here 
To a place I'd never seen 
Where the nights were long and cold 
And the air was fresh and clean." 
And there we were standing 
Underneath the western sky 
Beside a home we built ourselves 
Way up in the mountains high 
And we lived happy there, just you and I 
On a river of dreams 
There's no need to worry now 
'Cause I've got a plan 
We don't need this modern world 
I'm not a modern man 
We're gonna get ourselves off these city streets 
We're gonna get back on the land 
There's a whole lot of people out there 
Feel just like you and me 
They'd love to pack their leavin' trucks 
And say goodbye to all their misery 
What'd ya say we pack up that Camaro, honey 
And chase the sun until we're free 
And if I could I'd lift you up on angel wings 
We'd fly away and never worry about a thing 
We'd know the joy and riches a simple life can bring 
On a river of dreams, on a river of dreams 
So get your things together now 
I'll be getting mine 
I've finally got the feeling girl 
The sun is gonna shine 
You know people don't run out of dreams 
People just run out of time 
Let's find that place out there 
Underneath the western sky 
We'll build a home ourselves 
Way up in the mountains high 
We'll live happy there 'til the day we die 
On a river of dreams 
And we'll have stars to wish on every single night 
We'll build a fire and make love by candlelight 
We'll do our moondance 'til we get it right 
On a river of dreams, on a river of dreams 
I can see us standing by the river 
Holding hands beside the river
