Lyrics

Dreamer

When I was young my father
Said that I was a dreamer
And dreamers need to go out into the world
I took my line, walked down to the river
There I casted out, caught it on a stone

For life is not what they tell you
It’s what you figure out on your own

When I was seventeen
I thought that love would save me
I would find someone, together become whole
When all the love had come and gone
And I felt empty
A vision came to me one night all alone

For life is not what they tell you
It’s what you figure out on your own

Go follow the moon
And wait for the sun to shine in your life
It can’t be the truth
That love will never shine in your life

The autumn leaves
Have taught me much about living
It’s alright to change your color
And leave the tree
This winding road is my life, my beginning
Where it takes me, I want you to be

For life is not what they tell you
It’s what you figure out on your own
