I dream of another place
Where the sun sets each night,
Past the hills and the mountains,
Under a star drenched sky;
Where the birds sing their song,
And the breeze blows its tune;
Where the trees change bright colors,
And the flowers stay in bloom;
Where rivers flow into crashing oceans,
And creeks make lullabies in the night;
Where dreams dance all around me,
Like fireflies twirling out of sight;
Where people love each other,
And friends don't have to fight;
Where love doesn't always hurt,
And I'm liked even when I'm not right;
Where if you're not talented,
Or exceptionally smart,
People say it's not what's in your head,
But what counts is in your heart;
Where God is well known,
And there are no hypocrites;
Where everyone's healthy,
And rarely get sick;
Where tears don't fall
From emotional pain;
Where nothing is lost,
And nothing is gained.
I dream of another place,
So far from anywhere;
So far from my world...
I dream of being there.
