I dreamed a dream of the bonny A bonfire big and high A fire so big that the flame lit up the sky I dreamed a dream of the bonny In a vision in the back of my eye And when the walls came down it was the only thing kept me alive | | | | You came by to the bonny I can tell by the look in your eyes For the people that you loved and lost That you never got to tell goodbye Believe and build your bonny Gonna never know unless you try One life is a short time And no one knows where you go when you die Go on and build the bonny Build a bonfire big and high A fire so big that the flames light up the sky Believe and build your bonny Gonna never know unless you try One life is a short time And no one knows where you go when you die | | | | Go on and build the bonny Build a bonfire big and high A fire so big that the flames light up the sky Believe and build your bonny Gonna never know unless you try One life is a short time And no one knows where you go when you die For the people that you loved and lost That you never got to tell goodbye Stand tall while the walls come down With a smile and a tear in your eye
