Don't Dream It's Over
Crowded House


Crowded House, 1986
 

There is freedom within, there is freedom without
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
There's a battle ahead, many battles are lost
But you'll never see the end of the road
While you're travelling with me

        Hey now, hey now
        Don't dream it's over
        Hey now, hey now
        When the world comes in
        They come, they come
        To build a wall between us
        We know they won't win

Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof
In the paper today tales of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the T.V. page

        Chorus

Now I'm walking again to the beat of a drum
And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart
Only the shadows ahead barely clearing the roof
Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief

        Chorus
