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, oooh
Now I’m old and feeling grey 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 and there’s many tales I’ve lived to tell
I’m readynow, I’m ready now, I’m ready now to fly from the highest swing
I had a dream.
Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is mystery,
Today is a gift, that is, a present!
