A velvety sky, a jewel nestling blanket
My dreams rest there Tauntingly out of reach Beyond my mortal fingers Oh so far away A billion light worlds away For all you care of me
I know It is I who is to blame I'm adult, grown up! It's all gone away Dreams are there to be a wistful thought When drinking wine and suffering life Why did I do that? Why oh why?
The stars are just stars The sky is just space And a book is just A yearning fantasy Dressed in pretty words Of how I wished it to be A fire inside That's watered with life
How I wish I could Soar on wings Soar so high So the sun wouldn't be able To singe my feathers Burn my dreams Send me crashing Back down to reality
