Dreams Go By Lyrics - Harry Chapin

There you stand in your dungarees 

Looking all grown up and so very pleased 

When you write your poems they have so much to say 

When you speak your dreams it takes my breath away 

You know I want to be a ball player 

A regular slugging fool 

But both our dreams must wait awhile 

Until we finish school 

And so you and I 

We watch our years go by 

We watch our sweet dreams fly 

Far away, but maybe someday 

I don't know when 

But we will dream again 

And we'll be happy then 

Till our time just drifts away

There you stand in your wedding dress 

You're so beautiful that I must confess 

I'm so proud you have chosen me 

When a doctor is what you want to be 

You know I want to be a painter, girl 

A real artistic snob 

But I guess we'll have our children first 

You'll make a home, I'll get a job 

And so you and I 

We watch our years go by 

We watch our sweet dreams fly 

Far away, but maybe someday 

I don't know when 

But we will dream again 

And we'll be happy then 

Till our time just drifts away

Listen to the seasons passing 

Listen to the wind blow 

Listen to the children laughing 

Where do broken dreams go? 

There you stand in your tailored suit 

So many years gone by, but you're still so cute 

We take the car to go and meet the bus 

When our grandchildren come to visit us 

You say you should have been a ballerina, babe 

There are songs I should have sung 

But I guess our dreams have come and gone 

You gotta dream when you are young 

And so you and I 

We've watched our years go by 

We've watched our sweet dreams fly 

Far away, but maybe someday 

I don't know when 

But we will dream again 

And we'll be happy then 

Till our time just drifts away 

You and I 

We'll watch our years go by 

We'll watch our sweet dreams fly 

Far away, maybe someday 

I don't know when 

But we will dream again 

And we'll be happy then 

Till our time, drifts away 

You, you and I 

We'll watch our years, years go by 

We'll watch our sweet, sweetdreams fly 

Far away, maybe someday
