I'm pulled in Another journey begins Imagination vacations This is a good time to remember We can still afford to take them
I find them very refreshing I let vibe decide where I'll go And what I'll sing How often is imagination better then "The Real Thing" Our dreams of our creation Survive this world in our homes of imagination One reason I don't see me Letting anyone tell me how to dream Is because I realized long ago Controlling my dreams Is somebody else's dream And in their dreams Who I am and what I want Doesn't mean anything So when I dream I don't cue them in
Holding the line by the tale I'm pulled in Another journey begins Imagination vacations This is a good time to remember We can still afford to take them
I'll see you when our dreams Step foot into reality
