Dancin' With Dreams Lyrics - Shaken Not Stirred - Phil Vassar

We were 18 and 19 

And paired off on Saturday nights 

Down in the basement a big killer stereo 

Dimmer switch on the lights 

Jane was a dancer, and Paul was a drummer 

Christine was a doctor to be 

Life stretched before us 

Like one endless summer 

And that brings us back to me 

I was the gypsy 

We sang as we stood at the gate 

We were ready to take the world on 

Four young soldiers of fate 

Couldn't wait to go right every wrong 

Wearing our passion, our hopes 

And our t-shirts and jeans 

Dancin' with dreams 

Ten years ago May, we all drank to the future 

And all went our separate ways 

I packed up to go with my clothes and piano 

And music and something to say 

I hear Paul owns a drum shop 

Jane teaches ballet and Christine's an OBGYN 

I'm writing songs that I sing in a cafe 

And sometimes I write about them 

I miss my friends 

We sang as we stood at the gate 

We were ready to take the world on 

Four young soldiers of fate 

Couldn't wait to go right every wrong 

Wearing our passion, our hopes 

And our t-shirts and jeans 

And dancin' with dreams 

Before reality threw up the roadblocks 

And nothin' was out of our reach 

Time flowed smooth as a waltz 

So it seemed 

We're dancin' with dreams 

We sang as we stood at the gate 

We were ready to take the world on 

Four young soldiers of fate 

Couldn't wait to go right every wrong 

Wearing our passion, our hopes 

And our t-shirts and jeans 

Dancin' with dreams
