Don’t Dream It’s Over Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 travelin' 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
Ooh
We know they won't win

[Verse 2]
Now I'm towin' my car, there's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causin' 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]
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
Ooh
We know they won't win
[Break]
Mhm, yeah
Oo-ooh
Oo-oo-oo-ooh
Oo-ooh
Mm
Oo-ooh
Oo-ooh

Oo-oo-ooh

[Verse 3]
Now I’m walkin' again to the beat of a drum
And I'm countin' the steps to the door of Your heart
Ooh
Only shadows ahead, barely clearin’ the roof
Ooh
Get to know the feelin' of liberation and release

[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
Ooh
We know they won't win, oh no no
[Outro]
Hey now, hey now
Oh no no
Ooh
Hey now, hey now
Ooh
Oh, don't let them win
Hey now, hey now
Ooh

Hey now, hey now
Ooh
Oh, don't let them win
Hey now, hey now
Ooh

Hey now, hey now
Oo-ooh
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

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
