Song by Fire Inc.<br /><br>

I've got a dream 'bout an angel on the beach<br>

And the perfect waves are starting to come<br>

His hair is flying out in ribbons of gold<br>

And his touch has got the power to stun<br>

<br>

I've got a dream 'bout an angel in the forest<br>

Enchanted by the edge of a lake<br>

His body's flowing in the jewels alive<br>

And the earth below is starting to shake<br>

<br>

But I don't see any angels in the city<br>

I don't hear any holy choirs sing<br>

And if I can't get an angel<br>

I can still get a boy<br>

And a boy'd be the next best thing<br>

The next best thing to an angel<br>

A boy'd be the next best thing<br>

<br>

I've got a dream 'bout a boy in a castle<br>

And he's dancing like a cat on the stairs<br>

He's got the fire of a prince in his eyes<br>

And the thunder of a drum in his ears<br>

<br>

I've got a dream 'bout a boy on a star<br>

Lookin' down upon the rim of the world<br>

He's there all alone and dreamin' of someone like me<br>

I'm not an angel but at least I'm a girl<br>

<br>

I've got a dream when the darkness is over<br>

We'll be lyin' in the rays of the sun<br>

But it's only a dream and tonight is for real<br>

You'll never know what it means<br>

But you'll know how it feels<br>

It's gonna be over (over)<br>

Before you know it's begun<br>

(Before you know it's begun)<br>

<br>

It's all we really got tonight<br>

Stop your cryin' hold on (tonight)<br>

Before you know it it's gone (tonight)<br>

Tonight is what it means to be young<br>

Tonight is what it means to be young<br>

<br>

<br>

<br>

Let the revels begin<br>

Let the fire be started<br>

We're dancing for the restless and the broken-hearted<br>

Let the revels begin<br>

Let the fire be started<br>

We're dancing for the desperate and the broken-hearted<br>

Let the revels begin ...(Tonight is what it means to be young...)<br>

Let the fire be started ...(Before you know it it's gone...)<br>

We're dancing for the restless and the broken-hearted<br>

Let the revels begin<br>

Let the fire be started<br>

We're dancing for the desperate and the broken-hearted<br>

<br>

Say a prayer in the darkness for the magic to come<br>

No matter what it seems<br>

Tonight is what it means to be young<br>

Before you know it it's gone<br>

Tonight is what it means to be young<br>

Before you know it it's gone<br>

<br>

Ah...<br>

<br>

I've got a dream when the darkness is over<br>

We'll be lyin' in the rays of the sun<br>

But it's only a dream and tonight is for real<br>

You'll never know what it means<br>

But you'll know how it feels<br>

It's gonna be over (over)<br>

Before you know it's begun<br>

<br>

It's all we really got tonight<br>

Stop your cryin' hold on (tonight)<br>

Before you know it it's gone (tonight)<br>

Tonight is what it means to be young<br>

Tonight is what it means to be young...<br>

<br>

The things they say<br>

And then the things they do<br>

Nothin's gonna stop us if our aim is true...<br>

<br>

The things they say<br>

And then the things they do<br>

Nothin's gonna stop us if our aim is true...<br>

<br>

The things they say<br>

And then the things they do<br>

Nothin's gonna stop us if our aim is true...<br>

<br>

(Tonight is what it means to be young...)<br>

<br>
