Make Believe

I hope the day reality hits me
Takes its time in coming
With the blow
 
I want to spend my days dreaming,
Wishing on shooting stars,
And believing the world is somehow 
Beautiful
 
I hope the day I take off my crown
Takes it's time before I have to realize I'm not
A princess
 
I want to spend my days fighting pirates
And thinking happy thoughts
So I can fly to that place 
Where my dreams really do come true
 
I hope the day I have to grow up
Is still only the day I have to come home
From Neverland
 
I want to dance in the sun
And play in the pool and pretend I'm a mermaid
I want to believe
I'm something more than just
Me
 
I hope the day reality hits me
Is a long time coming
Because the beautiful world I live in
Is all just make believe
