Every man has a place
In his heart there's a space
And the world can't erase his fantasies
Take a ride in the sky
On our ship, fantasize
All your dreams will come true right away

And we will live together
Until the twelfth of never
Our voices will ring forever, as one

Every thought is a dream
Rushing by in a stream
Bringing life to the kingdom of doing
Take a ride in the sky
On our ship, fantasize
All your dreams will come true miles away

Our voices will ring together
Until the twelfth of never
We all will live love forever, as one

Come to see victory
In a land called fantasy
Loving life, a new degree
Bring your mind to everlasting liberty

As one, come to see victory
In a land called fantasy
Loving life for you and me
To behold, to your soul is ecstasy

You will find other kind
That has been in search of you
Many lives has brought you to
Recognize, it's your life now in review

And as you stay for the play
Fantasy has in store for you
A glowing light will see you through
It's your day, shining day
All your dreams come true

As you glide in your stride
With the wind as you fly away
Give a smile from your lips and say
I'm free, yes I'm free, now I'm on my way

Come to see victory
In a land called fantasy
Loving life for you and me
To behold, to your soul is ecstasy

You will find other kind
That has been in search of you
Many lives has brought you to
Recognize, it's your life now in review

Anyone who LOVES this song will go crazy for the DJ Shelter Mix !
8 minutes of EWR HEAVEN. 
At the end he isolates the vocal tracks to amazing effect. 
I believe you can still 
find it online these days.
incredíble production. 
Wow!  I might not have heard this song in well over half a century and I immediately recognized it.  

Good fun.
It's amazing - I loved this song on AM radio as a kid - but never heard it with the clarity that RP's broadcasting presents.  I love it even more now, hearing all the detail! Thank you RP!
What a bank of memories I have for this song and this band.  EWF was the favorite band of a dear friend who passed way too soon from Cystic Fibrosis. Love and miss you, Tim! Cheers!
More of this genre, please!
Saw them late last month at the Budweiser Stage in Toronto and they were incredible. Just as fresh and full of groove and energy as the were when this recording was made.
This song has given me goosebumps since I was a teenager when it came out...
Awesome sound, tight production, fantastic musicians/performers!

This definitely brings back some great memories from the 80's!

A co-worker introduced me to RP sometime around 2003.  A life-changing event, all to the positive!    Have been a listener and fellow financial supporter ever since. All hail to RP / Rebecca and Bill!

And I've not stopped listening (and supporting) since then, and have turned on many friends as well...

Hmmmm.  I hear this on the Main Mix 43 minutes after jukes1, but the stats say it has been played only once in the past month.  Perhaps she/he heard it on a different RP channel?

Holy Moses! Never woulda thought EWF would air here. Shame on me, and cheers for you. Got my 10.
 
Posted 17 years ago? Really?
Incredible song accompanied by incredible high school memories. 8<10
Has it finished yet? (cautiously taking a finger from one of my ears...)💩
Sitting in front of a fire drinking wine and making out kinda music.  
One of the best bands of all time, but this one is a little too edgeless for me.

They are still performing. They put on a great show.

NIIIIICE!

Add me to the LOVE THIS chorus. simply outstanding!
LOVE blasts from the past!  Carry on Bill and Rebecca 
A special thanks from Mrs Rudely.  
Everyone! Out of ANY funk (mood) you may have been in. 
Forgot how good these guys were.  Thanks Bill
Wonderful, uplifting music is always welcome in my world.
We've seen them a couple times in the last few years. They are still killin' it. I don't know how Philip Bailey can still sing like that.

How bold of you guys at RP ! Just as good or better maybe than the first time I heard it in the 70's in collage. Amazing!
LOVE THIS BAND!  Inspiring.  Saw them a few years ago before Maurice passed away, but of course he was not present.  They were still amazing after all.
Love this song!
Thank you so much for playing this just now, it was absolutely wonderful.
In a rapture here in Tidewater, VA!  So fine!
a 6.  How about "September" instead? 
Not my favorite EWF - Phillip Bailey falsetto tune, but I find it quite likeable.
Pop pap indeed... well as long as it is not real often. Bleeaahhh :roll:
Reminds me of music heard in the dentist\'s chair. Needless to say, not a positive association. When I think of the other bands around who did this music with so much more passion...
Holy Moses! Never woulda thought EWF would air here. Shame on me, and cheers for you. Got my 10.
I have, uh, eclectic tastes, including oldies, disco, '70s soul, '80s new wave, rap, techno, and good old rock from any era. This song may be unusual here, but I like it! How about some Boogie Wonderland! That ought to shake people up.... (Yes, yes, good thing I'm not in charge of the programming here.)
listenable, good horn and string arranging. Seems a little out of place on RP.
Ack -- no redeeming value without the nostalgia. Total pop pap. How about a little Lionel Richie or Air Supply while you\'re at it?
