Born to Dream

[Verse 1]
There ain't a pie in the sky I ain't tried a slice of
A dream in a pipe I've passed up [?]
And I've wished on every fallin' star I've seen

[Verse 2]
There ain't a longshot I wouldn't bet it all on
And a whole lot of times it's gone all wrong
But oh well, I was born to dream

[Chorus]
How people keep their feet on the ground, I'll never know
'Cause I see somethin' up in the clouds and away I go

[Verse 3]
It's smart to assume your ship ain't comin'
And woe is the fool who hears different drummin'
'Cause you never know where it's gonna lead

[Verse 4]
And you can get lost chasin' lightnin' bugs
You can fall off of your magic rug
And it's a long way down when you're born to dream

[Chorus]
How people keep their feet on the ground, I'll never know
'Cause I see somethin' up in the clouds and away I go

[Verse 5]
It's prudent to put your dreams in the attic
And bein' realistic, it's pragmatic
'Cause one shouldn't go off chasin' crazy things

[Outro]
'Cause every weed ain't a four-leaf clover
And every storm ain't a rainbow over
But tell that to someone born to dream

No, every weed ain't a four-leaf clover
And every storm ain't a rainbow over
But tell that to someone born to dream
And I guess I was born to dream
