I
DREAM
OF
DREAMS
Yesterday
I
dreamed
big
dreams,
Today
I
dream
some
more,
Except
today
I
dream
of
dreams
That
I
have
dreamed
before.
I
dream
of
dreams
dreamed
in
my
youth,
Those
castles
in
the
air;
I'm
now
approaching
middle
age
And
find
those
dreams
still
there.
My
dreams
have
not
materialized;
I
guess
that
I
have
failed.
Can
I
now
build
upon
my
dreams,
Or
has
my
ship
already
sailed?
