Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Out here the nights are long, the days are lonely

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

I'm working on a dream

[Verse 2]

Now the cards I've drawn is a rough hand, darlin'

I straighten my back and I'm working on a dream

I'm working on a dream

[Chorus]

I'm working on a dream

Though sometimes it feels so far away

I'm working on a dream

I know it will be mine someday

[Verse 3]

Rain pourin' down, I swing my hammer

My hands are rough from working on a dream

I'm working on a dream

[Chorus]

I'm working on a dream

Though trouble can feel like it's here to stay

I'm working on a dream

Our love will chase the trouble away

[Chorus]

I'm working on a dream

Though it can feel so far away

I'm working on a dream

And our love will make it real someday

[Verse 4]

Sunrise come out, 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

[Chorus]

I'm working on a dream

Though it can feel so far away

I'm working on a dream

And our love will make it real someday

[Chorus]

I'm working on a dream

Though it can feel so far away

I'm working on a dream

And our love will make it real someday
