Lyrics

Happy talk, keep talkin' happy talk
Talk about things you'd love to do
You've got to have a dream
If you don't have a dream
How ya gonna have a dream come true?
Talk about a moon floating in the sky
Looking like a lily on a lake
Talk about a bird learning how to fly
Making all the music he can make
Happy talk, keep talkin' happy talk
Talk about things you'd love to do
You've got to have a dream
If you don't have a dream
How ya gonna have a dream come true?
Talk about a star lookin' like a toy
Peeking through the branches of a tree
Talk about a girl, talk about a boy
Counting all the ripples on the sea
Happy talk, keep talkin' happy talk
Talk about things you'd like to do
You've got to have a dream
If you don't have a dream
How you gonna have a dream come true?
Happy talk, keep talkin' happy talk
Talk about things you'd like to do
You've got to have a dream
If you don't have a dream
How you gonna have a dream?
How you gonna have a dream?
How you gonna have a dream come true?
