They are minstrels and beggars
Always in the sight of the king
Sometimes they sleep in the daytime
Come out in the night time and sing
They come into the castle
Through whatever window they can find
They come into your mind
Dreams of flying
Dreams of being free
Nobody can take my dreams from me
Nobody can take my dreams from me

You can bind me in chains
Lock me up in a jailhouse to rot
And if you come to see me
You might think I'm there, but I am not
They can sail into prison
Find a way thru any basement door
They can offer you more
Dreams of flying
Dreams of being free
Nobody can take my dreams from me
Nobody can take my dreams from me
You can take my money
Take my reputation
Even take my colour TV
Nobody can take my dreams from me
Nobody can take my dreams from me
