The Perfect Land

Let's run away We'll find someplace new A far away land Where it's only me and you This place we'll call home A land filled with such beauty Work and school won't exist Having fun our only duty. We'll do whatever we want Eat anything we please Dessert for every meal With no more nasty lima beans With not a care in the world We'll stay up late every night Playing games of all sorts And we'll never ever fight. In this world for only us We'll have all that we need No more asking for things No more bothering with a plead The days will go by Each one as good as the last But our minds will start to wonder About the days of our past Our old friends and family Great dinners with them all The things we used to do Before our group became small We'll start to miss what we had Down to the very worst days Every teeny tiny detail We'll miss in all the ways Maybe our perfect land isn't that What if we've got it all wrong The wonder, the greatness I think we had that all along. We don't need to leave To find someplace new We can be happy and carefree With more than just me and you.
