Don’t Dream It’s Over Lyrics By Crowded House

    there is freedom within there is freedom without
    try to catch a deluge in a paper cup
    there’s a battle ahead many battles are lost
    but you’ll never see the end of the road
    while you’re traveling with me

    hey now hey now don’t dream it’s over
    hey now hey now when the world comes in
    they come they come to build a wall between us
    we know they won’t win

    now i’m towing my car there’s a hole in the roof
    my possessions are causing me suspicion but there’s no proof
    in the paper today tales of war and of waste
    but you turn right over to the tv page

    hey now hey now don’t dream it’s over
    hey now hey now when the world comes in
    they come they come to build a wall between us
    we know they won’t win

    break

    now i’m walking again to the beat of a drum
    and i’m counting the steps to the door of your heart
    only shadows ahead barely clearing the roof
    get to know the feeling of liberation and release

    hey now hey now don’t dream it’s over
    hey now hey now when the world comes in
    they come they come to build a wall between us
    you know they won’t win

    don’t let them win
    hey now hey now
    hey now hey now
    hey now hey now
    don’t let them win
    they come they come
    don’t let them win
    hey now hey now yeah
    hey now hey now
