Dream Child
At the edge of the wood
If only you all could
Hear me as you drive in your car
I really feel that I should
Be there... Where Hollywood
Can see me shining like a star
Because I want to sing
Momma, this joy I could bring
To the world upon the stage
So I stand here praying
While other children are playing
And running; I'm a bird in a cage
But my echo and I rejoice
Hearing the sound of my own voice
Can you hear my heart's cry?
At the edge of the wood
I am doing really good
As I sing do not pass me by
Dedicated to Helen
