Take time to see the wonders of the world
To see the things you've only ever heard of
Dream life the way you think it ought to be

See things you thought you'd never ever see
Take a cruise to China or a train to Spain
Go round the world again and again

Meet a girl on a boat meet a boy on a train
And fall in love without the pain
Refrain :

Everybody needs love and adventure
Everybody needs cash to spend
Everybody needs love and affection

Everybody needs two or three friends
Chorus :
These are the things

These are the things
The things that dreams are made of
These are the things

These are the things
The things that dreams are made of
Take a lift to the top of the Empire State

Take a drive across the Golden Gate
March, march, march across Red Square
Do all the things you've ever dared

(Refrain)
(Chorus)
Like fun and money and food and love

And things you never thought of
These are the things
These are the things

The things that dreams are made of
New York, ice cream, TV, travel, good times
Norman Wisdom, Johnny, Joey, Dee Dee, good times

(Repeat chorus three times and fade)
