1, 2, 3, 4, 5
[Soft Sultry female vocals]
[verse]
In the land of "If" somewhere this side of forgotten dreams
the world is very foggy and nothing is as it seems
There are no deadlines or plans
things just happen as they may
No new commitments made
nothing beyond today
The land of If is living in the moment
without working for your dreams
(nothing is as it seems)
[break]
[beat switch]
[bass drop]
Your dreams are somehow forgotten
among everyday ordinary things
And you have no firm goals
beyond the few day to day cares
You are in stasis
The daily grind seems to wear
Cause the land of if,
is for you to fill with your dreams
you only need to remember them
and put plans down to earn
(dreams, bucket list)
(plans to earn)
(check)
[break]
[beat switch]
[bass drop]
(nothing is as it seems)
[break]
For anything you can think of is possible too,
though the dates an times an persons may change
as things go along they are skewed.
(things can feel screwed)
[break]
But the intent it to reach nirvana
the things that will bring you to bliss
and to not live a life wondering what you did miss
[musical interlude]
Money, fame, power, unconditional love
are all available to anyone and are not a mystery above
We can get what we dream of
if we only make a plan. (make a plan)
And work it every day,
and on your principals
make a stand
(Make a stand in your home base)
(principals determine if the rest was just a waste)
[break]
[beat switch]
[bass drop]
So make your land of "IF"
a realization of your dreams
and life will never be the same again I promise you,
its as easy as it seems
(Gotta have your dreams!)
[break]
[Instrumental]
to make life worth living
you have to open that door
and dig down deep into your core
and if you realize that part of you
you will never want for more
[lyrics fade]
its the door
its the door
If
If
If
If
it will make a diff
If
[End]
