When I was a girl they used to say Dreams are just dreams anyway Open your eyes - feet on the ground Take your head out of the clouds And I tried so hard not to fly away on the breeze While thinking of all the things I could think Without hope and all my dear wishes All would be in shades of grey In my mind I'm painting the future Don't listen to what they say It's your life Dream a little dream sometime And when you're done with dreaming Then wish upon a star at night Don't ever you forget (don't ever you forget) There is nothing to regret But the things you never tried (the things you never tried) And wished upon a star at night The years went by, my dreams grew up The child in me will never stop I close my eyes, feet off the ground And my head in the clouds I don't even try not to fly away on the breeze While thinking of all the things I can see Without hope and all my dear wishes All would be in shades of grey In my mind I'm painting the future Don't listen to what they say It's your life Dream a little dream sometime And when you're done with dreaming Put wish upon a star at night Don't ever you forget (don't ever you forget) There is nothing to regret But the things you never tried (the things you never tried) And wished upon a star at night
