Here are the lyrics for “The Forest of Dreams” (written by Queeniemusic/Kimberly Steele)

Dream, dream of light, oh dream

Dream

The ground is disappearing and you’re closer to the sun

Traveling faster than the speed of light

Dream, dream of light, oh dream

Dream of light

Dream, dream of light, oh dream

You running like you’re inside a world that has come undone

Dream, dream of light, oh dream

Dream, dream of light
