This song was interpreted by American Idol contestant Jessica Sanchez. Since that night I watched the episode, I can't get it out my head.
I have been a fan of Billy Joel and to be honest, I am not familiar with this particular song, more so when Jessica sang it.
I was talking to a friend a while ago and we were catching up.
I told her, I believe I landed in my dream job already where I can help organizing the community which is how I was taught back in college. This is my passion. Other than that, I can still function as a teacher by becoming a lecturer at some community gatherings. And then I heard this song and it says everybody has a dream. I had a dream and now I am living that dream.
Everybody has a Dream
Billy Joel / Jessica Sanchez (American Idol 11)
While in these days of quiet desperation
As I wander through the world in which I live
I search everywhere for some new inspiration
But it's more than cold reality can give
If I need a cause for celebration
Or a comfort I can use to ease my mind
I rely on my imagination
And I dream of an imaginary time
Oh oh, and I know that everybody has a dream
Everybody has a dream, everybody has a dream
And this is my dream, my own
Just to be at home and to be all alone with you
If I believe in all the words I'm saying
And if a word from you can bring a better day
Then all I have are these games that I've been playing
To keep my hope from crumbling away
So let me lie and let me go on sleeping
And I will lose myself in palaces of sand
And all the fantasies that I will be keeping
Will make the empty hours easier, easier to stand
And I know that everybody has a dream
Everybody has a dream, everybody has a dream
And this is my dream, my own, just to be at home
And to be all alone, all alone with you
Oh, oh, with you
I know that everybody has a dream, oh oh, everybody has a dream
I know that everybody has a dream, everybody
(Everybody has a dream) Everybody, everybody, everybody has
(Everybody has a dream) Everybody has a dream, I know that
(Everybody has a dream) Everybody
(Everybody has a dream) Everybody has a dream
(Everybody has a dream) Everybody has a dream, everybody has
(Everybody has a dream)
