When I was young I thought I had my own key I knew exactly what I wanted to be Now I'm sure, you've boarded up every door Lived in a bubble days were never ending Was not concerned about what life was sending Fantasy was real, but now I know much about the way I feel
I'am gonna paint you the picture 'Cause I don't think you live 'round here no more I've never even seen the key to the door We only get what we will settle for While we're living the dreams we have as children fade away While we're living the dreams we have as children fade away While we're living the dreams we have as children fade away While we're living the dreams we have as children fade away Away, away, they fade away, away, away
Now my life has turned another corner I think it's only best but I should warn you Dream it while you can, maybe someday I'll make you understand
