I’ve got pockets full of post it notes covered with words
From thoughts I’ve encountered or things that I’ve overheard
And I fill up my pockets each day, all day long
With words and ideas and possible songs.
So I emptied my pockets when I got home today
To read once again what the post it notes say.
But I only found one note with only one line;
Just four simple words in search of a rhyme.
And I’ll tell you the line if you promise that you
Will do what the message is telling you to.
It’s just one lonely line, but it’s more than it seems -
The line on the post it note says
“Don’t doubt the dream!”
Don’t doubt the dream or it’ll never come true,
Your dream is the work you’ve been longing to do.
So just shoulder your burdens they’re as light as they seem
And do what you must do but don’t...
Don’t doubt the dream!
Like an old locomotive running full steam ahead
We’ve gotta follow our dreams and see where we’re led.
We’ve got so much potential and so little time,
But the future looks bright if we follow the line...
Don’t doubt the dream! Cuz it’s the best you can be,
Your dream is the you that you want them to see.
You can show the whole world how to build self esteem
If you do what you must do, but don’t...
Just do what you must do, but don’t...
You’ve gotta do what you must do, but don’t...
Don’t doubt the dream! .... .... ....
Don’t doubt the dream... or it’ll never come true!
