Don't Dream It's Over -- Sixpence None The Richer -- Lyrics

Don't Dream It's Over -- Sixpence None The Richer

Charted: 2003
Peaked at N/A
From the album "Divine Discontent"
Remake of the Crowded House song from 1987

There is freedom within
There is freedom without
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
There's a battle ahead
Many battles are lost
But, you'll never see the end of the road
While you're traveling with me

Chorus:
Hey now
Hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now
Hey now
When the world comes in
They come
They come to build a wall between us
We know they won't win

Now I'm towing my car
There's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion
But, there's no proof
In the paper today, tales of war and of waste
But, you turn right over to the TV page

Chorus

Now I'm walking again to the beat of a drum
And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart
Only shadows ahead barely clearing the roof
Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief

Chorus

Hey now
Hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now
Hey now
When the world comes in

Hey now
Hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now
Hey now
When the world comes in
