Flying Dreams

Artist: Joseph Whitehead

Album: Best of Ballroom Music, Part 10 (Vol 22)

Song Length: 3:25

George's Thoughts: A truly lovely song for Slow Waltz, from the credits in the animated motion picture "The Secret of N.I.H.M". This song has a wonderful rise and fall quality throughout and a clear beat count that makes it suitable for dancers of any level. The lyrics about how love creates a feeling of flying suits the Waltz so well that it's a natural choice for any kind of event. A shorter version was also used in the motion picture, but I'm not sure if it's on the soundtrack album.

Song Lyrics:

Dream by night
Wish by day
Love begins this way
Loving starts
When open hearts
Touch and stay
Sleep for now
Dreaming's how
Lover's lives are planned
Future songs
And flying dreams
Hand in hand
Love it seems
Made flying dreams
So hearts could soar
Heaven sent
These wings were meant
To prove, once more
That love is the key
Love is the key
You and I
Touch the sky
The eagle and the dove
Nightingales
We keep our sails
Filled with love
And love it seems
Made flying dreams
To bring you home to me

Love it seems
Made flying dreams
So hearts could soar
Heaven sent
These wings were meant
To prove, once more
That love is the key
Love is the key

You and I
Touch the sky
The eagle and the dove
Nightingales
We keep our sails
Filled with love
Ever strong
Our future song
To sing it must be free
Every part
Is from the heart
And love is still the key
And love it seems
Made flying dreams
To bring you home to me
