Lyrics

Take time to see the wonders of the world To see the things you've only ever heard of Dream life the way you think it ought to be See things you thought you'd never ever see Take a cruise to China Or a train to Spain Go round the world Again and again Meet a girl on a boat Meet a boy on a train And fall in love Without the pain Everybody needs love and adventure Everybody needs cash to spend Everybody needs love and affection Everybody needs 2 or 3 friends These are the things These are the things The things that dreams are made of These are the things These are the things The things that dreams are made of Take a lift to the top of the Empire State Take a drive across the Golden Gate March, march, march across Red Square Do all the things you've ever dared Everybody needs love and adventure Everybody needs cash to spend Everybody needs love and affection Everybody needs 2 or 3 friends These are the things These are the things The things that dreams are made of These are the things These are the things The things that dreams are made of Like fun and money and food and love And things you never thought of These are the things These are the things The things that dreams are made of New York, ice cream, TV, travel, good times Norman Wisdom, Johnny, Joey, Dee Dee, good times These are the things These are the things The things that dreams are made of These are the things These are the things The things that dreams are made of These are the things These are the things The things that dreams are made of These are the things These are the things The things that dreams are made of These are the things These are the things The things that dreams are made of These are the things These are the things The things that dreams are made of
