Dreams Are Just Dreams

No matter how silly you think it is Tell us your favourite dream There's nothing that can surprise us Heard lots of tales and schemes! How about one where you're flying Surveying the country below Maybe you're ruler of a distant land With a magic wand that glows! Or what if you could be the captain Of a great ocean going liner A clown in a colourful marching parade Could there be anything finer? Bet you haven't thought of this one A drummer in a rock 'n roll band Or how about a pitcher for the Yankees A lifeguard all muscled and tanned! Have you ever wished you were Santa Handing out Christmas prizes Or an opera singer like Pavarotti A super hero with many disguises! I guess all of this just goes to prove No matter how hard you scheme It's best to be just the person you are After all, dreams are only dreams! © Jack Ellison 2015

AH Jack! Dreams are the building blocks to tomorrow... If we never dreamed we wanted to go into space... We never would have. And if I hadn't dreamed about a fun baby Dragon... I would have never had this much fun... Dreams matter!

Couldn't agree with you more young Jack... if you're a person who helps out others less fortunate then you've made their dream come true - thanks mate - Lindsay
