Keep On Dreaming Lyrics - No Place Like Home - Big Country

Born too soon for a future 

Born too poor for love 

Born too far from the warmth of the sun 

Or a place in the heavens above 

It? s a cold, cold night in the circus 

A colder night in the zoo 

Light up the fires down in Carton Town 

Where the feet and the fingers are blue 

I said keep on dreaming 

Hey, hey, keep on dreaming 

I hear talk of chances 

Chances gone to waste 

Well it? s hard to see opportunity 

With a hand drawn across your face 

We never chose the doctor 

We never chose the school 

We never chose the family 

Or the winning smile of the fool 

I said keep on dreaming 

Keep on dreaming 

Like the life you have is the life you want 

Keep on dreaming 

Some of us dream in the morning 

Some of us simply will curse 

Others will put their defenses to work 

Protecting the bad from the worse 

A band plays in the valley 

A nightmare in every head 

And people all sing hallelujah 

When they mean heaven help us instead 

I said keep on dreaming 

Keep on dreaming 

Like the life you have is the life you want
