Children craft, the finest dreams
before they know, reality
And we tell them, that they should
And we tell them, that it's good
Then they live inside their dreams
And they stretch them at the seams
Till they lose their perfect shape
And their innocence deflates

So give me all your dreams deferred
Count them like a flock of birds
One for sorrow
Two for joy
Three for a girl and
Four for a boy

Sparrows never have a care
Destiny is in the air
Every songbird dares to dream
Improvising on a theme
Soon our babies' lullabies
Wrapped on them a nest of lies
Kiss their cradle in the tree
Kiss their safety to the breeze

And give me all your dreams deferred
Count them like a flock of birds
Five for silver
Six for gold
Seven for a secret never told

Lay your dreams out on the wire
Wonder who you will inspire
Dreamers have to take this chance
Won't be mad you dared to dance

So give me all your dreams deferred
Count them like a flock of birds
Eight is a kiss and
Nine's a wish
Ten is a chance never to be missed

One for sorrow
Two for joy
Three for girls
Four for boys
Five for silver
Six for gold
Seven for a secret never told
Eight's a kiss
Nine's a wish
Ten is a chance never to be missed

Give me all your dreams deferred
Count them like a flock of birds
