00:00Take a look around now, change the direction, adjust the tuning, try a new translation
00:26Don't look at man in the same old way, take a new picture
00:36Just because you don't see shooting stars, doesn't mean it isn't perfect, can't you see?
00:46It's the stuff that dreams are made of, it's the slow and steady fire
00:55It's the stuff that dreams are made of, it's your heart and soul's desire
01:05It's the stuff that dreams are made of
01:16So what's this about your best friend? She's got a brand new shiny boy
01:24And they're moving out to Malibu to play with all his pretty toys
01:32And you feel closed in by the same four walls, same old conversation
01:41With the same old guy you've known for years, choose your imagination and you will see
01:51It's the stuff that dreams are made of, it's the slow and steady fire
02:00It's the stuff that dreams are made of, it's your heart and soul's desire
02:10It's the stuff that dreams are made of
02:15What if the prince on the horse in your fairy tale is right here in disguise?
02:24And what if the stars you've been reaching so high for are shining in his eyes?
02:33Oh yeah!
02:40Don't look at yourself in the same old way, take another picture
02:59Shoot the stars off in your own backyard, don't look any further and you will see
03:09It's the stuff that dreams are made of, it's the slow and steady fire
03:18It's the stuff that dreams are made of, it's your heart and soul's desire
03:28It's the stuff that dreams are made of, it's the sails against the skies
03:37It's the stuff that dreams are made of, it's the reason we are alive
03:47Cause we're alive
03:54We're alive
03:58We're alive
04:04I got to trust you!
04:06It's the stuff that dreams are made of, it's the slow and steady fire
04:15It's the stuff that dreams are made of, it's your heart and soul's desire
04:24It's the stuff that dreams are made of, it's the sails against the skies
04:33It's the stuff that dreams are made of, it's the reason we are alive
04:43It's the stuff that dreams are made of
04:54Thank you for watching!
