City of Dreams

Near where you are standing
Diamonds stars do the dance
The Indians told a story
Now it has come to pass
The Indians have alleged the Spaniards lived for gold
White man came and killed them but they
Haven't really gone

We live, in the city of dreams
We drive, on this highway of fire
Should we wake and find it gone
Remember this our favorite town

From Germany and Europe
And Southern USA
They named us little tar men
But we're living to this day
The children of a white man
Saw Indians on tv
Heard about the legend
How their city was a dream

We live, in the city of dreams
We drive, on this highway of fire
Should we wake and find it gone
Remember this our favorite town

The Civil War are over
We won war 1 and 2
If we can live together
That dream it might come true
Underneath the concrete, the dream is still alive
A hundred million life times
A word that never dies

We live, in the city of dreams
We drive, on this highway of fire
Should we wake and find it gone
Remember this our favorite town

We live, in the city of dreams
We drive, on this highway of fire
Should we wake and find it gone
Remember this our favorite town
