Lyrics
[PreChorus]
i had a dream
i got everything i wanted
not what you'd think
and if i'm being honest
[Verse 1]
it might have been a nightmare
to anyone who might care
[Verse 2]
thought i could fly (fly)
so i stepped off the golden
nobody cried (cried)
nobody even noticed
[Verse 3]
i saw them standing right there
kinda thought they might care
[PreChorus]
i had a dream
i got everything i wanted
but when i wake up, i see
you with me
[Chorus]
and you say
as long as i'm here
no one can hurt you
don't wanna lie here
but you can learn to
if i could change the way that you see yourself
you wouldn't wonder why you hear
"they don't deserve you"
[Verse 4]
i tried to scream
but my head was under water
they called me weak
like i'm not just somebody's daughter
[Verse 5]
could've been a nightmare
but it felt like they were right there
and it feels like yesterday was a year ago
but i don't wanna let anybody know
'cause everybody wants something from me now
and i don't wanna let 'em down
[PreChorus]
i had a dream
i got everything i wanted
but when i wake up, i see
you with me
[Chorus]
and you say
as long as i'm here
no one can hurt you
don't wanna lie here
but you can learn to
if i could change the way that you see yourself
you wouldn't wonder why you hear
"they don't deserve you"
[Bridge]
if i knew it all then, would i do it again?
would i do it again?
if they knew what they said would go straight to my head
what would they say instead?
[Outro]
if i knew it all then, would i do it again?
would i do it again?
if they knew what they said would go straight to my head
what would they say instead?
