Keep a Dream in Your Pocket

Keep a dream in your pocket and a song in your heart
Keep the lamp of your learnin' burnin' bright
Keep your eye on your horizon and a smile on your face
As you travel down the highway of your life

Don't listen to those voices that say it can't be done
They build walls where there was never one before
No, there's nothing that can stop you, nothing that can drag you down
If you keep lookin' for that ever-open door

So if you follow your dream to the end of the road
Taking care not to let it fade away (not fade away)
If you follow your dream and you follow it well
It will lead you to the promise of a bright, shiny day

Well, imagine if Columbus had not dreamt the world was round
And Armstrong had not walked upon the moon
If John and Paul never wrote a song for "Yesterday"
If all of them had given up too soon

Yes, they were always taking chances
Looking for the answers
That took the whole world to higher ground

So if you follow your dream to the end of the road
Taking care not to let it fade away (not fade away)
If you follow your dream and you follow it well
It will lead you to the promise of a bright, shiny day

Keep a dream in your pocket
Keep a dream in your heart
Keep your dream forever
Don't let it fade away

Keep a dream in your pocket
Keep a dream in your heart
Keep your dream forever
Don't let it fade away

If you follow your dream to the end of the road
Taking care not to let it fade away (not fade away)
If you follow your dream and you follow it well
It will lead you to the promise of a bright, shiny day

If you follow your dream to the end of the road
Taking care not to let it fade away (not fade away)
If you follow your dream and you follow it well
It will lead you to the promise of a bright, shiny day
