Oh, I think I've landed In a world I hadn't seen When I'm feeling ordinary When I don't know what I mean Oh, I think I've landed Where there are miracles at work For the thirst and for the hunger Come the conference of birds And say it's true It's not what it seems Leave your broken windows open And in the light just streams And you get a head A head full of dreams You can see the change you want to Be what you want to be When you get a head A head full of dreams It's a love, I’ve just been spoken With a head full, a head full of dreams Oh, I think I've landed Where there are miracles at work There you've got me open handed When you got a lost of words I sing, oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh A head full of dreams Oh Oh Oh A head full of dreams Oh It's a love, I've just been spoken With a head full, a head full of dreams
