Musical Intro
When the shadows of the evening
Creep across the quiet yard
And stars like silent guardians
Watch you from afar
When your eyes start to feel heavy
And you're safely tucked in bed
When the Lord has listened to your prayers
And your pillow softly holds your head
Dream of dappled ponies
Sandcastles in the sun
Dream of fluffy puppies
Who chase you when you run
Let your dreams hold you and enfold you
And when the morning comes
Just...carry your dreams with you
As you dance through ALL your days
And when clouds cover up the sun
May you still be warmed by its rays
Dreams can carry you throughout life
Take you places near and far
Dreams can help you understand the secrets
In someone else's heart............so my child
Dream of dappled ponies
Sandcastles in the sun
Dream of fluffy puppies
Who chase you when you run
Let your dreams hold you and enfold you
And when the morning comes
Let nothing come between you........
You and your dreams.........so
Dream of dappled ponies
Sandcastles in the sun
Dream of fluffy puppies
Who chase you when you run
Let your dreams hold you and enfold you
When each new morning comes
When each new morning comes..............
