    I'm sorry that the man has died. May he have lived a happy life.

    And I'm sorry that his death and your post is what it's taken to make a favorite song of mine make a whole lot more sense to me. I had never heard of Norman Wisdom before today, except here:

    Human League
    THINGS THAT DREAMS ARE MADE OF

    Take time to see the wonders of the world
    To see the things you've only ever heard of
    Dream life the way you think it ought to be
    See things you thought you'd never ever see
    Take a cruise to China or a train to Spain
    Go round the world again and again
    Meet a girl on a boat, meet a boy on a train
    And fall in love without the pain

    Everybody needs love and adventure
    Everybody needs cash to spend
    Everybody needs love and affection
    Everybody needs two or three friends

    These are the things
    These are the things
    The things that dreams are made of
    These are the things
    These are the things
    The things that dreams are made of

    Take a lift to the top of the Empire State
    Take a drive across the Golden Gate
    March, march, march across Red Square
    Do all the things you've ever dared
    Like fun and money and food and love
    And things you never thought of

    These are the things
    These are the things
    The things that dreams are made of

    New York, ice cream, TV, travel, good times
    Norman Wisdom, Johnny, Joey, Dee Dee, good times
