We'll make dreams come true if we want them to
Yes all will come play the pipes and drum
Sing a happy song and we'll sing along.”

I'm gonna dance the dream
And make the dream come true…”

Song lyrics, The Red Shoes (1993)
Context: Feel your hair come tumbling down
Feel your feet start kissing the ground
Feel your arms are opening out
And see your eyes are lifted to God
With no words, with no song

And make the dream come true…

“Because these things
Will change.
We can see it now.
These walls
That they put up,
To hold us back
Will fall down.
It's a revolution,
It's how we'll become.
Who we're
Supposed to be.
We'll sing hallelujah;
We'll sing hallelujah.
Oh.”

Taylor Swift (1989) American singer-songwriter

“There's a bower of roses by Bendemeer's stream,
And the nightingale sings round it all the day long;
In the time of my childhood 'twas like a sweet dream,
To sit in the roses and hear the bird's song.”
