Irene Cara - The Dream (Hold On to Your Dream)

I've been chasing dreams for so long Just one step behind and then they're gone Illusions of love would come and go I guess you have to hurt before you grow And everybody knows Never let go of the, never let go of the dream I always seem to lose what I thought was mine And many times I tried to leave it behind Deep inside, hope was still alive Deep inside, dreams will never die That is why we're movin' closer to the truth It's really great for me to be here I've won over the pain and the fear It's been so very hard through the years Been looking through a rainbow of tears And still I never really let go of the dream Sometimes I saw my life just falling apart And all the rejection tearing at my heart Deep inside, hope was still alive Deep inside, dreams will never die If you try there'll be so much more for you It's really great for me to be here I've won over the pain and the fear It's been so very hard through the years Been looking through a rainbow of tears And still I never really let go of the dream We can all be free, we hold the key If we can see what we wanna be Life's never easy, you get no guarantees Why not give your all and see what you can find?
