[00:00.00]Dream Again - David Wilcox
[00:06.75]Written by：David Wilcox
[00:13.51]We had time to dream
[00:18.50]Our huckleberry glide downstream
[00:24.59]That's the way it seemed
[00:29.95]Time was cheap as gasoline
[00:35.54]Old Route 66
[00:39.09]Through the sticks
[00:41.93]Was our magic carpet
[00:46.61]How we used to fly and not look down
[00:57.65]Far across the seas
[01:03.25]The history of the ancient empires
[01:08.11]We were
[01:08.71]Earning our degrees
[01:13.68]We'd study hard to stoke our own fires
[01:19.15]So summer we could fly
[01:22.96]You and I
[01:26.06]With our headphones blaring
[01:30.72]Whistling through the fallen ruins of Rome
[01:41.57]I know we're not at peace
[01:47.17]Coming back across our border
[01:52.44]Security police
[01:57.95]Change the homeland threat to orange
[02:03.52]Remember back when we were the free
[02:10.31]And the hopeful nation
[02:14.83]Home from our vacation
[02:19.07]Toe that line
[02:26.14]I got no time to rest
[02:31.36]Search for work in Carolina
[02:37.13]We used to make the best
[02:42.44]Now they ship that stuff from China
[02:47.98]Factories closing down
[02:51.50]Left this town
[02:54.50]With our homeless shelters and
[02:59.61]Blankets in the dirt when gates get closed
[03:10.63]Ashes in the dust
[03:16.11]Must have been their campfire burning
[03:21.34]It's boom until it's bust
[03:26.94]That's the lesson we've been learning
[03:32.61]Through our glory days
[03:36.09]All ablaze
[03:38.91]With our pride and promise
[03:43.47]We never saw the ways it all burns down
[03:54.77]We're leaving here tonight
[04:00.00]Walk the rails across that river
[04:05.23]On the other side
[04:10.47]All the future can deliver
[04:15.87]Across this great divide
[04:19.31]River's wide
[04:22.05]Where the future's waiting
[04:26.37]If I can just decide to leave the past
[04:37.20]It's who we've always been
[04:42.56]The land of dreams and visionaries
[04:48.10]The frontier starts again
[04:53.63]Make our way with what we carry
[04:59.04]The journey is from here
[05:02.26]Hope or fear
[05:05.18]For our children's children
[05:09.37]We are the pioneers
[05:12.66]We have a dream again
