The Dream Lyrics - Moya Brennan

We sailed out in the morning 

As the winter turns to spring 

Undestined and unknowing 

Of what tomorrow brings 

Towards the blue horizon 

Leaving all we have behind 

Our yearning hearts will guide us to find 

A dream we carry with us 

And the hopes that we hold 

As we rise from the ash into gold 

We reach for the impossible 

As unreal it may seem 

Still we sail 'cross the ocean 

And follow the dream 

The moon and stars above us 

Will lead us to the shore 

My heart will be my compass 

And you will be my north 

We forecast stormy weather 

And pro-and-con our moves 

But what have we achieved ... 

A dream we carry with us 

And the hopes that we hold 

As we rise from the ash into gold 

We reach for the impossible 

As unreal it may seem 

We will sail 'cross the ocean 

And capture the dream 

One day arriving 

Behind the far blue 

Where you'll find me waiting 

And I will find you too 

A dream we carry with us 

And the hopes that we hold 

As we rise from the ash into gold 

We reach for the impossible 

As unreal it may seem 

We will sail 'cross the ocean 

And become the dream
