Don't Dream It's Over

Neil Finn

There is freedom within
There is freedom without
Try to catch a 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

(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

(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 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

(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
You know they won't win

Don't let them win (hey, now, hey, now)
(Hey, now, hey, now)
Hey, now, hey, now!
Don't let them win (they come, they come)
Don't let them win (hey, now, hey, now)
(Hey, now, hey, now)
