歌曲：Dream Don't Turn To Dust

是一首由美國Owl City樂隊演唱的歌曲，這首歌曲收錄於Owl City樂團的第四張專輯《All Things Bright And Beautiful》,該專輯於2011年4月16日發售。這次的新專輯由美國唱片製作人傑克·約瑟夫·普奇（Jack Joseph Puig）操刀。新專輯《All Things Bright and Beautiful》是繼Owl City在2009年發佈的專輯《Ocean Eyes》的又一力作。

2007年，一位名叫亞當·揚（Adam Young）的美國大學二年級學生在明尼蘇達州創建了貓頭鷹之城（Owl City）樂隊，亞當·揚是該樂隊的唯一成員，樂隊的創作、編曲、混音合成、主唱全由亞當·揚擔任。樂隊成立不久，便發行了首張EP《Of June》。2008年樂隊發行了首張專輯《Maybe I’m Dreaming》。2009年，樂隊先後發行了單曲《Hot Air Balloon》、《Strawberry A valanche》，2009年7月14日樂隊發行了全新專輯《Ocean Eyes》，其中專輯的主打歌曲《Fireflies》更是一舉躍上美國Billboard榜單的冠軍寶座和itunes下載排名的冠軍位置。貓頭鷹之城在發行樂隊的第一張專輯以及主要單曲時都是未和唱片公司簽約的，直到2009年的早些時候，亞當·揚才同著名的音樂廠牌“Crazed Hits”簽約，準備樂隊的全新專輯《Ocean Eyes》。

近段時間不斷創作出一首首單曲。如：《The Technicolor Phase》、《In Christ Alone》、《Peppermint Winter》、《How Deep The Father s Love For Us》、《lonely lullaby》、《To The Sky》等。隨着一首又一首的單曲出現，粉絲們期盼專輯能早日誕生。終於在2011年，主唱Adam Young宣佈了新磚創作的消息。

Dreams Don't Turn To Dust

Splash down in the silver screen

Into a deep dramatic sceneI swim through the theater

Or maybe I'm just a dreamer

Like a kite in the bright midday

Wonder stole my breath away

Shy sonata for Mercury

The stars always sing so pretty

This picnic will soon depart

Real life, I'm sad to see you go

I'll miss you with all my heart

But I'd rather be alone

'Cause I couldn't live without

Sunsets that dazzle in the dusk

So I'll drag the anchor up

And rest assured

'cause dreams don't turn to dust

Dreams don't turn to dust

I made for the countryside

And my eyes never grew so wide

Apple raspberry river blue

I don't wanna leave without you

In the sound I gladly drowned

Into the emerald underground

I rub my eyes 'cause it's hard to see

Surrounded by all this beauty

This picnic will soon depart

Real life, I'm sad to see you go

I'll miss you with all my heart

But I'd rather be alone

'Cause I couldn't live without

Sunsets that dazzle in the dusk

So I'll drag the anchor up

And rest assured

'cause dreams don't turn to dust

(I'm sad to see you go)

(But I'd rather be alone)

When tiger eyes begin making you blush

And when diamonds boast that they can't be crushed

Let 'em go, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust

This picnic will soon depart

Real life

I'm sad to see you go

I'll miss you with all my heart

But I'd rather be alone

'Cause I couldn't live without

Sunsets that dazzle in the dusk

So I'll drag the anchor up

And rest assured

'cause dreams don't turn to dust

Dreams don't turn to dust

Dreams don't turn to dust

I'll rest assured 'cause dreams don't turn to dust
