Intro :            I don’t want to be a poet cause poets drown in lakes   And I don’t be a sinner and watch the devil dance at my wake.   I just want to be a dreamer; a dreamer is wide awake   And I just want to be a lover even if my heart has to break.   If only we could see the world through the new eyes of a child   If only every boy and girl could just stay beautiful and wild   And there’s probably no saving us but I wrote this song to try   So let?s sing la la la la   La la la la la!   La la la la la la la la la   I don’t want to be president   Cause I don’t know which side to take    And I don’t want to be a fortune teller   Cause that?s just tempting faith.   And I just want to be a drop of water   Fall down in a storm of rain Living life in the deep blue sea   And rise back up again   If only we could see the world through the new eyes of a child   If only every boy and girl could just stay beautiful and wild   And there’s probably no saving us but I wrote this song to try   So let?s sing la la la la   La la la la la!   La la la la la la la la la   We’ve got the same desires burning fires   In the middle of my songs.   But I’m your gold and silver won’t last forever   So won’t you let it go!   Cause we were born to be dreamers dreamers wide awake.   We were born to be lovers even if hearts have to break.   If only we could see the world through the new eyes of a child   If only every boy and girl could just stay beautiful and wild   And there’s probably no saving us but I wrote this song to try   So let?s sing la la la la   La la la la la!   La la la la la la la la la   So let?s sing la la la la   La la la la la! So let?s sing la la la la la la la la la
