So what if all your dreams came true one day?
Would it be such a great thing? Who can say?
The place where hopes once lived inside your mind
Would be an empty space: the lonely kind
You need your hopes just like your heart
To pump the life blood through your veins.
But if all those dreams should come to pass
It's going to overload your brain.
Losing all your ordinary
Even just precautionary
Having every single thing you want
Is such a terrifying thought
I can't imagine.
So what if all your dreams came true one day?
How soon you'd see yourself in blues and greys
Just think of all the things you'd leave behind
Without the weight of it you might unwind.
Unraveled string, a plastic bag
At the mercy of the breeze
Travel too light without the drag
And you'll be falling to your knees.
Losing all your ordinary
Even just precautionary
Having every single thing you want
Is such a terrifying thought
I can't imagine.
