"The Dream Within"

"The Dream Within" is a song featured in Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within with music by Elliot Goldenthal and performed by Lara Fabian. It is played during the ending credits of the film.

"The Dream Within"'s melody follows Aki and Gray's leitmotif closely in that it is almost completely a vocal arrangement of the theme.

Lyrics[]

Free the dream within

The stars are crying a tear

A sigh escapes from heaven

And worlds end

Breathe the dream within

The mystifying

We tremble and spin

Suspended within

Look beyond where hearts can see

Dream in peace

Trust, love, believe

We tremble and spin

Suspended within

Free the dream within

The voices calling, a song

A prayer from deep inside you

To guide you

Be the dream within

The light is shining

A flame on the wind

Salvation begins

Look beyond where hearts can see

Dream in peace

Trust, love, believe

We tremble and spin

Suspended within

Free the dream within

The stars are crying a tear

A sigh escapes from heaven

And worlds end
