2. The Dream Dissolves (6:11)
[Counselor] I drift above the clouds, upon the veil of a dream
I reach out to touch the planets, something beautiful evolves
Then the dream dissolves
[Biologist] I float beneath the tides, upon the crest of a dream
In a world of hope and wonder, something magical evolves
Then the dream dissolves
[Diplomat] A world of blue, dreams to pursue
The dawning of an era, a new life evolves
But then the dream dissolves
[Prophet] A world sublime, a paradise
Blessed by our maker, our soul evolves
But the dream dissolves
I reach out to touch the planets, something beautiful evolves
Then the dream dissolves
[Biologist] I float beneath the tides, upon the crest of a dream
In a world of hope and wonder, something magical evolves
Then the dream dissolves
[Diplomat] A world of blue, dreams to pursue
The dawning of an era, a new life evolves
But then the dream dissolves
[Prophet] A world sublime, a paradise
Blessed by our maker, our soul evolves
But the dream dissolves
