Born a Dreamer
I was born a dreamer,
this I know.
My parents told me to be practical,
but I chose the dreamer life.
My dreams are beautiful,
from a wedding dance
to the feel of the ocean sand.
From a lover's kiss
to starting my own band.
My life's painted as a fairy tale,
its majestic elements before me.
From happiness to sorrow,
the colors are all laid out to see.
Whatever befalls,
I just can't be ordinary.
I want to aspire,
I want to dream.
In reality I am a shadow,
one that comes and quickly fades.
But in my mind,
I am the hero, the one that saves the day.
This world that I am stuck in,
it's a fantasy I know.
But I was born a dreamer...
my mind has told me so.
