pursuit of the dream
Wake up and dream about The plans you have in store for you But keep in mind It's not just what you do But what you do it for-and who There are roads to discover There are stories yet to be told As you see the big picture Just beginning to unfold (so)  Break down the barriers but Don't bend the rules Never forget your roots As you head for something new Ride through the shades of desire Letting the light be seen And he'll steer the heart in the Pursuit of the dream  It's alright to find yourself Thinking now and then About the way you want your life to be Anticipating what lies Just around the bend Can't wait to see  Comes the time of decision Some you dodge and some you should face As you see the big picture There will be some dues to pay (so)  Break down the barriers but Don't bend the rules Never forget your roots As you head for something new Ride through the shades of desire Letting the light be seen And he'll steer the heart in the Pursuit of the dream  Wake up and dream about The plans you have in store for you But keep in mind It's not just what you do But what you do it for-and who  There are choices that build you Choices that will make you fall All part of the big picture One day you will see it all  Break down the barriers but Don't bend the rules Never forget your roots As you head for something new Ride through the shades of desire Letting the light be seen And he'll steer the heart in the Pursuit of the dream
