Lea Salonga releases her new song and music video, “Dream Again” with music by Daniel Edmonds who collaborated with Blair Bodine for the lyrics. The song is now available for download from wherever you get your music with proceeds to benefit The Actors Fund.

Several weeks ago, the Tony Award winner invited the public to post about things they dream of doing once the pandemic is over. The responses led to the song which gives a burst of hope to the dark situation you are in. It is a great reminder that things will always get better. Watch the video with lyrics below:

DREAM AGAIN

I am going up and down each day
My thoughts just keep on spinning 
Like and endless Ferris wheel

Lea Salonga Dream Again
The song’s cover art was designed by Salonga’s daughter, Nicole Chien.

When will the chaos fade away
Feeling all alone together
Searching for a way to heal

I picture you outside my door
Can’t wait to throw it open wide
Bring you back inside

When can I sing for you once more
I miss the music and the crowd
I wanna live out loud again

My heart’s been holding out so long
That we will be together once again
Let’s fill the silence with this song
Our melody will lift us up then my friend

It’s time to dream again
When you have wings you need to fly
But I’ve been grounded by this winter
Growing restless day by day

The sun will rise and so will I 
From way up here the things I fear
Will slowly melt away

I hear the songbirds so much more
The day is breaking clear now
You are near now

Maybe we’re stronger than before
Your life has been a gift to me
It’s lifting me again 

My heart’s been holding out so long
That we will be together once again
Let’s fill the silence with this song
Our melody will lift us up then my friend

It’s time to dream again
It’s time to dream again my friend
It’s time to dream again
