Power of the Dream


Deep within each heart, there lies a magic spark
That lights the fire of our imagination
And since the dawn of man, the strength of just I can
Has brought together people from all nations

There's nothing ordinary in the living of each day,
There's a special part that every one of us will play

Feel the flame forever burn
Teaching lessons we must learn
To bring us closer to the power of the dream
As the world gives us its best
to stand apart from all the rest
It is the power of the dream that brings us here

Your mind will take you far; the rest is just pure heart
You will find your fate is all your own creation
Every boy and girl as they come into this world
They bring the gift of hope and inspiration

There's so much strength in all of us
Every woman child and man
It's the moment that you think you can't
You'll discover that you can

Avalanche


Where did you go on the day I got the news
You left me all alone just when I needed you
Never did I think that you would ever go away
Your smile and your caring ways just disappeared

It's hard to imagine my blood is not the same
I've become and AIDS statistic and there's no one to blame
Here is the truth, and without a fleeting glance
If you leave me now I know it'll be like an avalanche
Love me don't leave me, stay with me now

I've made a plan, I'm gonna make it work somehow
I've got prayers, I've got hope
and I'm determination bound
Let me show you that, how I've learned to stand
Cause without you I can get through this avalanche
Love me don't leave me, stay with me now

It's hard to imagine my blood is not the same
I've become and AIDS statistic and there's no one to blame
Here is the truth, and without a fleeting glance
I know I can make it without you through this avalanche
Love me don't leave me, stay with me now
Love me
