Everybody Has a Dream The Manhattans

While in these days of quiet desperation
As I wander through the world in which I live
I searched everywhere, everywhere for some new inspiration
But it's more than cold reality can give
If I need a cause for celebration
Or a comfort I can use to ease my mind
I rely on my imagination
And dream, and dream of an imaginary time

And I know I know, yeah

That everybody, everybody, everybody has a dream
Evеrybody, everybody, evеrybody has a dream
Everybody, everybody has a dream
And this is my dream, my own
Just to be, just to be at home
And to be, and to be all alone
Yeah with you, with you

If I believe in all the words I'm saying
And if a word from you, if a word from you can bring a better day
Then all I have, all I have are these games I've been playing
To keep my hope, to keep my hope from crumbling away
So let me lie and let me go on sleeping
And I will lose myself, lose myself in palaces of sand
And all the fantasies, all the fantasies that I have been keeping
Will make the empty hours easier to stand
