That Dream - Billy Hufsey and Gene Anthony Ray - Song of the Week


The Lyric: "And now everything it touches turns to gold" comes from "That Dream" written by Michael Cruz and performed by Billy Hufsey and Gene Anthony Ray taken from the season 3 episode "A Way of Winning".






What A Dream I had Last Night,
I was dancing like a shooting star through the night.
Nothing down below could touch me,
Nothing on the Earth could hold me down.

What A Dream I had Last Night,
I was shining like the sun and twice as bright.
On My Feet were wings of Wonder
and the music growled like thunder

And that Dream has found my heart and taken hold,
And Now everything it touches turns to Gold
And That dream burns like a fire through my Veins
I'm in ecstasy and pain.
In that Dream.

And that Dream has found my heart and taken hold,
And Now everything it touches turns to Gold
And That dream burns like a fire Through my Veins
I'm in ecstasy and pain.
In that Dream.

Like an Eagle I Cut through the Sky,
(In that Dream)
My heart is flying fast like a knife
(In that Dream)
In my vision the whole World is new
(In that Dream)
Anything I Can Dare I Can Do
(In that Dream)

And that Dream has found my heart and taken hold,
And Now everything it touches turns to Gold
And That dream burns like a fire Through my Veins
I'm in ecstasy and pain.
In that Dream.

Like an Eagle I Cut through the Sky,
(In that Dream)
My heart is flying fast like a knife
(In that Dream)
In my vision the whole World is new
(In that Dream)
Anything I Can Dare I Can Do
(In that Dream)

Carnival - Debbie Allen - Song of the Week


"Carnival" is written by Henry Thompson & Vanessa Dale and is performed by Debbie Allen, from the season 1 episode "The Crazies".







"Every day is a great day for carnival. 
Little girls and little boys are having fun. 
And there'll be dancing in the streets.
Ain't no telling who you'll meet.
Every day is a great day for carnival. 

Every day is a great day for carnival.
Yeah! So come on, everybody, Have some fun.
And if you stay a little while.
You'll be dancing in style.
Every day is a great day for carnival.

(Yee-ha!)
(Aah! Samba!)

And everybody will stand high
As the carnival is passing by.
Every day is a great day for carnival.

There will be dancing in the streets.
Ain't no telling who you'll meet.
Every day is a great day for carnival.
Every day is a great day for carnival.

(Five, Six, Everybody Samba!)

Carnival, Carnival, Carnival, Carnival! 
Every day is a great day for carnival.
So come on, everybody, Have some fun.
And if you stay a little while.
You'll be dancing in style.
Every day is a great day for carnival
Carnival!"
