I got a dream about an angel on the beach
And the perfect waves are starting to come
His hair is flying out in ribbons of gold
In his touch he's got the power to stun

I got a dream about an angel in the forest
Enchanted by the edge of a lake
His body's glowing in the jewels of light
And the earth below him's starting to shake

But I don't see any angels in the city
I don't hear any holy choir sing
And if I can't get an angel I can still get a boy
And a boy'll be the best thing
The next best thing to an angel
A boy'll be the next best thing

I got a dream about a boy in a castle
And he's dancing like a cat on the stairs
He's got the fire of a prince in his eyes
And the thunder of a drum in his ears

I got a dream about a boy on a star
Looking down upon the rim of the world
He's there all alone and dreaming of someone like me
I'm not an angels, but at least I'm a girl

I got a dream when the darkness is over
We'll be lying in the rings of the sun
But it's only a dream and tonight is for real
You'll never know what it means but
you'll know how it feels
It's gonna be over (over)
Before you know it's begun
(before you know it's begun)
It's all we really got...
Tonight! Stop your crying hold on!
Tonight! Before you know it, it's gone!
Tonight! Tonight is what it means to be young!
Tonight is what it means to be young!

Let the revels begin
Let the fire be started
We're dancing for the restless
And the broken hearted

Let the revels begin
Let the fire be started
We're dancing for the desperate
And the broken hearted

Let the revels begin
Let the fire be started
We're dancing for the restless
And the broken hearted

Let the revels begin
Let the fire be started
We're dancing for the breathless
And the broken hearted

Say a prayer in the darkness
For the magic to come
No matter what it seems
Tonight is what it means to be young

Tonight is what it means to be young
(Before you know it, it's gone)
Tonight is what it means to be young
(Before you know it, it's gone)

I got a dream when the darkness is over
We'll be lying in the rings of the sun
But it's only a dream and tonight is for real
You'll never know what it means but
You'll know how it feels
It's gonna be over (over)
Before you know it's begun
(before you know it's begun)
It's all we really got...
Tonight! Stop your crying hold on!
Tonight! Before you know it, it's gone!
Tonight! Tonight is what it means to be young!
Tonight is what it means to be young!

Let the revels begin
Let the fire be started
We're dancing for the restless
And the broken hearted

Let the revels begin
Let the fire be started
We're dancing for the desperate
And the broken hearted

Say a prayer in the darkness
For the magic to come
'Cause no matter what it seems
Tonight is what it means to be young
Tonight is what it means to be young
Before you know it, it's gone...

No matter what it seems
Tonight is what it measn to be young...

The things they're saying and the things they do
Nothing's gonna stop us if our aim is true
The things they're saying and the things they do
Nothing's gonna stop us if our aim is true

Let the revels begin
Let the fire be started
We're dancing for the restless
And the broken hearted

Tonight is what it means to be young
Before you know it, it's gone...
