Summary: The stories we tell about dreams.
We tell ourselves many stories
about dreams in our lives
mixing messages between dreaming and waking
We tell the young ones,
"Dream big and what you wish will follow."
Then we turn around to ourselves and say,
"Dreams don't pay the bills."
Somewhere along the way
we forgot that we're children too.
Is it any wonder few of us enjoy the world?
It's time to remember
that each of us dreams
and if we take a moment
we might bring them true.
It's time to rewrite the stories
Re-igniting childish wonder
Dreams are for everyone
