1.
the morning sunshine catches my eye after a night of dreams fillin' the sky gonna carry on down the path i'm on heading down sunshine street i love to ramble far and wide in this earthly paradise i ain't lookin' for a story of love but i think that it's found me your eyes are like crystals shinin' in the days for you i'll be pinnin' but i gotta be on my way perhaps you can ride with me the moon gives me time to sleep the sun gives me my life to lead the street is mapped by the breeze and it'll take me to where i go i could climb my ladder to the stars i could dig for treasure of the years past none of those would make me feel so good as to have you by my side this life is just one big street full of places and people to meet now and then you stop awhile but you gotta come to the end so maybe you can come with me give me your heart to love and keep i'll cherish it both night and day from now till the settin' sun
2.
my eyes softly wake to the day tomorrows dreams take their shape i'll pass the crowd of captive souls who's dreams were gambled and sold freedom dances under the sun everyone's innocent while they dream when you wake what do you see? do you follow a crowd of step free? what's illusion, what's reality? freedom dances under the sun kaleidoscope images shine in the beauty of a child's mind wonder and belief that all can be when did you surrender your right to dream? freedom dances under the sun the world needs people who dream musicians, poets, painters who believe love will give you more than your money can open your eyes and you'll understand freedom dances under the sun
3.
a new day dawns, people preach the way of the land it's written every woman must find herself a man there's no space or time to dream or achieve she must live in a bubble that breaks if she doesn't please everyone should be allowed to love in their own way when you go to the factory, do you go with a smile? you'll work till you're worn out, thrown on a pile your imagination might just see you through but you'll end up tired and lonely if your dreams pass though everyone should be allowed to love in their own way when you see a butterfly pass you in a sunny street do you wish you were like them flying in free? love is open to many interpretations but it can't be wrong if feelings the motivation everyone should be allowed to love in their own way nobody should let the world get them feelings down some clear thinking would wipe away the clouds just as the flower pops up through the crack in the ground you can show your beauty amongst those in the crowd everyone should be allowed to love in their own way
4.
a sadness fills the sky tonight a sadness fills the sky my love the moon shines down on the lake so bright and you're the newest star in the sky forever it seemed you'd be with me throughout the seasons of life but now i have to face it all alone but i know you're twinkling bright a tear i will shed for you tonight a tear i will shed for you my love though you'll be fine in the sky i'm sad that you're not by my side you are now part of the map of hope hearing wishes from the world below i hope someone hears mine tonight and i can hold you close one more time you are the newest star tonight you are the newest star my love shine on brightly through the years like you shinned brightly in life
5.
"goodnight" to the moon say the stars "goodnight" to the sun say the flowers "goodnight to you, goodnight to you" "goodnight to all on earth" "it's time to sleep" says a mum to her child "shut your precious eyes and dream a while" "goodnight to you, goodnight to you" "see you when the sun is due" "goodnight" to the beach says the sea "goodnight" to the road says a traveling gypsy "goodnight to you, goodnight to you" "goodnight to all on earth" around the world lullabies are sung you'll sleep till the morning bells are rung "goodnight to you, goodnight to you" "see you when the sun is due" "goodnight" to you from me "i know you'll be fine in the land of dreams" "goodnight to you, goodnight to you" "goodnight from me to you" goodnight
