Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sitting still as stone
Watching
Watching
People walking by you
Wondering why
No one ever stops to talk or thinks about it
If they ever did
[Verse 2]
What if God shuffled by?
One day we might see
Doing not a thing
Breathing just to breathe
We might find some reason
[Verse 3]
But rushing around seems what's wrong with the world
Don't lose the dreams inside your head
They'll only be there till you're dead
Dream
[Verse 4]
Lying on the roof, counting
The suns that fill the sky I wonder is
Someone in the heavens looking back down on me?
I'll never know
[Verse 5]
So much space to believe
Funny when you're small
The moon follows the car
Doesn't no one but you see
Hey, the moon is chasing me
[Verse 6]
I worried if I looked away she's be gone
Don't lose the dreams inside your head
They'll only be there till you're dead
Dream
[Verse 7]
Walking through the wood
No cares in the world
The world, she's come to play
She's all mine just for a day
[Verse 8]
There's not a moment to lose in the game
Don't let the troubles in your head
Steal too much time you'll soon be dead
So play
[Verse 9]
All fall down
It won't be so long now
Out of the darkness comes light like a flash
You think you can, you think you can
Sometimes that is the problem
Dream, little darling, dream
[Verse 10]
Spinning on the wind
The leaf fell from the limb
But everyday should be a good day to die
Oh, all fall down
It won't be too long now
Every fire dies
[Verse 11]
I find it hard to explain how I got here
I think I can, I think I can
And then again I will falter
Dream
[Verse 12]
Oh, I think I can, I think I can
I think I can, I think I can
Dream, little darling, dream
Spinning on the wind
The leaf fell from the limb
