I can't remember very much about the song.....just some random lyrics


"Won't you please tell me where to find him"

"....with that storybook inside"

"Maybe he's found in a fairy tale....."

Song is called Dreams of a better day by Judd Mahar
Lookin' back on a younger man
long ago and far away
living in an age of innocence
in the shadows of a brighter day
Time stood still and it never seemed
that our worlds would grow apart
It was all for one, and one for all
straight from the heart

Bring back those days
that we hoped would never end
wash away troubles and sorrow
those starry nights when each wish came true
can't you send all those yesterdays to tomorrow

Won't you please tell me where to find him
and that life with a storybook end
Can't you please tell me where to find him
Maybe he's found in a fairytale
with those dreams of a better day

Life on the streets has taught me
to see the world through different eyes
what was love your neighbor as yourself
now hides behind the lies
You start thinking you can have it all
the world is yours to take
So you fill your cup with emptiness
and promises you make

Bring back those rains
and wash my cares away
and dry my eyes with the sunlight
and on that star only one small wish I pray
bring him home again

Won't you please tell me where to find him
and that life with a storybook end
Can't you please tell me where to find him
Maybe he's found in a fairytale
with those dreams of a better day

...I belive those are the lyrics. My tape is getting really old. Sorry, but its the best I can do.

Thank you Plaidman

hey,
i had the sudden urge to watch this movie and ive always loved this song,
and i believe your lyrics are very close, but in the second verse...
instead of him saying "Bring back those days that we hoped would never end..."

i think its really something like:
"Those summer rains that we hoped would never end..."

kinda symbolic to "wash away troubles and sorrows..."

correct me if you disagree.
thanks.

I happened upon the movie, which had a clean recording of the song.
