Fra musicalen 'West Side Story' 1957. Sangen, som synges afpigerne, handler om drømme og al den rigdom og luksus, manfår, når blot lykken hjælper en over grænsen til det forjættede land, Amerika. En drøm, der harsk gennemhulles senere i handlingen under de blodige opgør mellem rivaliserende bander af ind­vandrere.
