Build Me a Dream

Build me a dream of roses gold; velveteen beauties to behold. Give them songs, so they may sing; their gentle voices, how they’ll ring. Build me a dream of sapphire blue; with periwinkle skies, azure waters too. Build me a dream of castles fine; composed of stones, like diamond mines. Build me a dream of emerald light, one with doves, in joyous flight. Build me wings of solid gold; encourage me them, to unfold. When you build, build with love; so I can soar with loving doves.
