Workin' on a Dream

-Words and music by Bruce Springsteen

Out here the nights are long, the days are lonely

I think of you and I'm working on a dream

I'm working on a dream

Now the cards I've drawn's a rough hand, darlin'

I straighten my back and I'm working on a dream

I'm working on a dream

I'm working on a dream

Though sometimes it feels so far away

I'm working on a dream

And how it will be mine someday

Rain pourin' down, I swing my hammer

My hands are rough from working on a dream

From working on a dream

I'm working on a dream

Though trouble can feel like it's here to stay

I'm working on a dream

Our love will chase the trouble away

[whistling interlude]

I'm working on a dream

Though it can feel so far away

I'm working on a dream

And our love will make it real someday

Sunrise come, I climb the ladder

The new day breaks and I'm working on a dream

I'm working on a dream

I'm working on a dream

I'm working on a dream

I'm working on a dream

Though it can feel so far away

I'm working on a dream

And our love will make it real someday

I'm working on a dream

Though it can feel so far away

I'm working on a dream

And our love will make it real someday
