Lyrics
You might know of the original sin
And you might know how to play with fire
But did you know of the murder committed
In the name of love? (Yeah)
You thought what a pity
Dream on white boy
Dream on black girl
And wake up to a brand new day
To find your dreams have washed away
There was a time when I did not care
And there was a time when the facts did stare
There is a dream, and it's held by many
Well, I'm sure you had to see
It’s open arms
Dream on white boy
Dream on black girl
And wake up to a brand new day
Dream on black boy
Dream on white girl
And wake up to a brand new day
To find your dreams have washed away
Dream on black boy
Dream on white girl
And wake up to a brand new day
To find your dreams have washed away
Dream on, play with fire
White boy, black girl
Dream on, in the name of love
Black boy, white girl
Dream on, white boy, black girl
Black boy, white girl
Dream on, the name of love - yeah
You thought what a pity
Yeah
Original sin
Mmmm, hey, hey
Red, it’s over, it’s over
