Golden Dream (song)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Golden Dream" is the theme song to The American Adventure attraction in the Epcot theme park at the Walt Disney World Resort. The music was written by Robert Moline and the lyrics were written by show producer Randy Bright. The song gets its biggest push at the end of the attraction, during the montage of famous Americans.

[edit] Lyrics

(Chorus)

America,

Spread your golden wings,

Sail on freedom's wind,

Cross the sky.

Great bird,

With your golden dreams,

Flying high, flying high.

Restless one,

In a world of change,

Keeping dreams aloft,

In the rain.

Spirit free,

Soaring over clouds,

Of time, of time.

America,

You must keep dreaming now.

Dreaming of promise now,

Of your pioneers.

America,

Keep on flying now.

Keep your spirit free, facing new frontiers.

Spirit free,

You must keep flying now.

Reaching to touch the sky,

On the winds of change.

O restless one,

Search for brighter days,

Soaring through stormy skies,

With your head held high.

(Chorus)
