Sing To Me The Dream (1984)
Sing To Me The Dream (2008)
Out on the highway of flutes and fire
A circle of Gypsies and sparks
Ancient forever we head for tomorrow
A city of lights in the dark

The land is our home, home is where we are
Love in our arms.
If love comes into our life we'll go on and on
The Gypsy dances on

Out on the highway of disappointment
Past cities of metal and tears
Are we running forever to doubtful tomorrows
A symphony playing on fear

If our land is no longer our home
Then our home is not where we are
And love no longer disarms
Can life go on and on the
Gypsy dances on

Out on the highway of death and madness
The plan of extinction will fall
Faithful forever to earth and to children
We answer a passionate call

The land is our life
And life is where we are
With love come into our arms
We live on and on -- Gypsy dances on.

Out on the highway of flutes and fire
A circle of Gypsies and sparks
Ancient forever we head for tomorrow
A city of lights in the dark

Land must be our home -- home must be where we are
If love comes into
We can live on
