I was a little girl Alone in my little world Who dreamed of a little home for me I played pretend between the trees And fed my houseguests bark and leaves And laughed in my pretty bed of green
I had a dream That I could fly From the highest swing I had a dream
Long walks in the dark Through woods grown behind the park I asked God who I'm supposed to be The stars smiled down on me God answered in silent reverie I said a prayer and fell asleep
I had a dream That I could fly From the highest tree I had a dream
Oooooooooo [x8]
Now I'm old and feeling gray I don't know what's left to say About this life I'm willing to leave I lived it full and I lived it well There's many tales I've lived to tell I'm ready now I'm ready now I'm ready now To fly from the highest swing
