Dream cover version

I give you a branch of lilac I give you the stars, the quiet night I take your hand — so soft, so tender And we walk away from city’s light Through endless forests, lakes unmeasured Over oceans deep as dreams untold Through royal gardens, mist-veiled, hushed We wander where no map is bold Wherever we fly, we do not sail They never knew such magic far away No desserts, no feasts could ever prevail Our fairy forest is more precious than gold You’ll stand upon a cloud of white And watch the golden dawn take flight How the sun, like a king, ascends And bathes the earth in burning ends His rays weave through your braided hair The warm wind wraps you like a shawl We sail our ship on azure air On heaven’s river, free and tall Wherever we fly, we do not sail They never knew such magic far away No desserts, no feasts could ever prevail Our fairy forest is more precious than gold We’ll sail the dunes of Sahara’s flame Across the southern seas so blue Cling to the spire of Burj Khalifa — And whisper, We are lost… but true Like birds released at noon’s soft sigh, We glide — a breeze no wind can hold See where the dragon of the Celestial Empire Dances once more — a tale untold Wherever we fly, we do not sail — They never knew such magic far away No desserts, no feasts could ever prevail Our fairy forest is more precious than gold Then westward, from the eastern dawn We cross the taiga, peaks, and snow Dangling our legs from wings of steel We feel the vastness — Russia’s glow We’ll return to where the lilacs bloom Where tulip buds still dare to wake At dawn, you’ll open sleepy eyes — And tell me of the dream you made Wherever we fly, we do not sail They never knew such magic far away No desserts, no feasts could ever prevail Our fairy forest is more precious than gold
