A Child's Dream

 

Hey now if I wanted to

Could I paint the sky ?

Gold and green and hazy pink

Or the color of your sigh

 

Hey now could I catch the stars

And hang them in my room ?

Or make them sparkles in your eyes

That take away the gloom

 

Hey now could I catch a cloud

And split it into two ?

We'd gobble it up like cotton candy

A piece for me and you

 

Hey now could I keep the moon

And turn him into clay ?

Together we'd mold our heart's desires

And laugh from night to day

 

Hey now could I steal the sun

And dance in her sunbeams ?

revealing to you my inner thoughts

My hopes, my loves, my dreams

 

Hey now could I catch a flame

And turn it into your grin ?

So that when you'd smile at me

You'd melt me from within
