Crowded House - Don't Dream It's Over

 

There is freedom within

There is freedom without

Try to catch a 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 traveling 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 TV page

(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 walking again

To the beat of a drum

And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart

Only shadows ahead

Barely clearing the roof

Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief

(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

You know they won't win

Don't let them win (hey, now, hey, now)

(Hey, now, hey, now)

Hey, now, hey, now!

Don't let them win (they come, they come)

Don't let them win (hey, now, hey, now)

(Hey, now, hey, now)
