Take a look around now
|
Change the direction
|
Adjust the tuning
|
Try a new translation
|
Don't look at your man in the same old way
|
Take a new picture
|
Just because you don't see shooting stars
|
Doesn't mean it isn't perfect
|
can't you see...
|
|
It's the stuff that dreams are made of
|
It's the slow and steady fire
|
It's the stuff that dreams are made of
|
It's your heart and soul's desire
|
It's the stuff that dreams are made of
|
|
So what's this about your best friend?
|
She's got a brand new shiny boy
|
And they're moving out to Malibu
|
To play with all his pretty toys
|
And you feel closed in by the same four walls
|
The same old conversation
|
With the same old guy you've know for years
|
But use your imagination
|
And you will see....
|
|
It's the stuff that dreams are made of
|
It's the slow and steady fire
|
It's the stuff that dreams are made of
|
It's your heart and soul's desire
|
It's the stuff that dreams are made of
|
|
What if the Prince on the horse in your fairytale
|
Is right here in disguise
|
And what if the stars you've been reaching so high for
|
Are shining in his eyes
|
|
Don't look at yourself in the same old way
|
Take another picture
|
Shoot the stars off in your own backyard
|
Don't look any further
|
And you will see
|
It's the stuff that dreams are made of....
