A Man Has Dreams / Spoonful of Sugar (Reprise) Original London Cast of Mary Poppins (Ft. David Haig & Gavin Lee)

[MR. BANKS, spoken]
I used to dream that when I grew up, I'd learn everything there was to know about the stars. It's funny - I haven't thought about all that in years. I'm not usually sentimental

[BERT]
Ah, it's good to look back sometimes

[MR. BANKS]
Is it? I'm not so sure

(sung)
A man has dreams
Of working with giants
To carve his niche
In the edifice of time
Before the mortar of his seal
Has a chance to congeal

The cup is dashed from his lips
The flame is snuffed aborning
He's brought to wrack and ruin in his prime

[BERT, spoken]
Life's a rum go guv'nor, and that's the truth

[MR. BANKS]
Do you know what I think? It's Mary Poppins - from the moment she stepped into this house, things began to happen to me
