I used to dream alone,
Visions that always led to nowhere,
Where was all the wonder,
You have opened up,*
Why is heaven only seen from all above,

Why is this dream,*
There you are,
Just in time to save me,

Oh your love shines down,
On the heartache of yesterday,
There's a smile on my face,
And you know what that means,
When your love shines down,
The clouds they just clear away,
And I can see,
A man of a 1,000 dreams,

Drifting without a prayer,
You are my saint of second chances,
Painting me a rainbow,
When I'm feeling small,
Just as all the tear drops are about to fall,

Your love shines down,
On the heartache of yesterday,
There's a smile on my face,
And you know what that means,
When your love shines down,
The clouds they just clear away,
And I can see,
A man of a 1,000...

Dream on,
I'll always have another chance to,
Dream on,
All I ever really need,
All I really know,

Your love shines down,
On the heartache of yesterday,
There's a smile on my face,
And you know what that means,
When your love shines down,
The clouds they just clear away,
And I can see,
A man of a 1,000 Dreams.
