Lyrics - Franks Theme Dream away the tears in your eyes Dream away your sorrows Dream away all your goodbyes Dream away tomorrow I promise when the sun comes up I promise I'll be true and just like before the band starts to play they always play your favorite tune and dream away when everyone's gone dream away your grey skies too dream away and nothing is wrong dreams have wishes that are waiting for you and up ahead the road is turning turning for you and me and just like before the band starts to play now there's that twinkle in your eye and dream away
