Everybody Has A Dream Lyrics - The Stranger - Billy Joel

While in these days of quiet desperation 

As I wander through the world in which I live 

I search everywhere for some new inspiration 

But it's more than cold reality can give 

If I need a cause for celebration 

Or a comfort I can use to ease my mind 

I rely on my imagination 

And I dream of an imaginary time 

Chorus 

I know that everybody has a dream 

Everybody has a dream 

And this is my dream, my own 

Just to be at home 

And to be all alone... with you 

If I believe in all the words I'm saying 

And if a word from you can bring a better day 

Then all I have are these games that I've been playing 

To keep my hope from crumbling away 

So let me lie and let me go on sleeping 

And I will lose myself in palaces of sand 

And all the fantasies that I have been keeping 

Will make the empty hours easier to stand
