1. I hear the nights are long the days are longer

I think of you and...I'm working on a dream

I'm working on a dream

2. Now the cards I've drawn are rough and darkened

I've straightened the back and...I'm working on a dream

I'm working on a dream

R: I'm working on a dream, though sometimes it feels so far away

I'm working on a dream, and I know it will be mine someday

3. Rain pouring down I swing the hammer

My hands are rough from...working on a dream

Working on a dream

R: I'm working on a dream, though trouble can feel like its here to stay

I'm working on a dream, our love will chase the trouble away

I'm working on a dream, though it can feel so far away

I'm working on a dream, our love will make it real someday

4. The sun rises up and I climb the ladder

A new day breaks and....I'm working on a dream

*: I'm working on a dream

I'm working on a dream

I'm working on a dream

R: I'm working on a dream, though it can feel so far away

I'm working on a dream, our love will make it real someday

I'm working on a dream, though it can feel so far away

I'm working on a dream, our love will make it real someday
