A Dream

We all want something
We all wish
We all keep dreaming

What if one day
You got the power
To turn your luck around
What would you say?

What if someday
You're living your dream
Doing what you want and what you feel
What would you say?

What if somewhere
Your dream was waiting for you
Waiting for you to come get it
What would you do to go there?

What if it was
Lurking in the skies
Teasing you to touch it
What would you give to catch it?

What if it was right there
In front of you
But you missed it
Would you still go after it?

What if it was hiding 
Sending you visions
Toying with your mind
Would you still try and find it?

What if your dream
Was never in your reach
and you found out
That it was all just what it was
A dream.
