Make Believe

January 28, 2014

I hope the day reality hits me

Takes its time in coming

With the blow

I want to spend my days dreaming,

Wishing on shooting stars,

And believing the world is somehow

Beautiful

I hope the day I take off my crown

Takes it's time before I have to realize I'm not

A princess

I want to spend my days fighting pirates

And thinking happy thoughts

So I can fly to that place

Where my dreams really do come true

I hope the day I have to grow up

Is still only the day I have to come home

From Neverland

I want to dance in the sun

And play in the pool and pretend I'm a mermaid

I want to believe

I'm something more than just

I hope the day reality hits me

Is a long time coming

Because the beautiful world I live in

Is all just make believe
