Paper Dreams Lyrics

I hear something ringing, it's a bell

A sound to fill the void

It's a shame I hardly even hear it

Did you hear it ring as well?

Every day I feel like

Soaring with the eagles

I packed a case and flew away

Though it's been a-rainin' through the night

I'll swim in a tree with a porpoise

Put a pin into the sky

Paint a portrait of a fox

And be exactly the reason why

You say

Take me away

Through all your paper dreams

Show me to a place

Where all is make believe

I'll fly through the sky

No goodbye

Sail away on a crystal sea

Ride on clouds of glass

Pastel paths

Make dreams to last

So I hitch a ride to save my legs

I'm in denial I was lost

I bought a million summer rubies

From an alien on Mars

I've been keen to share my dreams

I'm not a novice, I'm a new man

Played a game of cops and robbers

Built a stone house by a stream

I'll swim in a tree with a porpoise

Put a pin into the sky

Paint a portrait of a fox

And be exactly the reason why

You say

Take me away

Through all your paper dreams

Show me to a place

Where all is make believe

I'll fly through the sky

No goodbye

Sail away on a crystal sea

Ride on clouds of glass

Pastel paths

Make dreams to last

So carry me away

I'll don a cloak of stars

You suggest a game of heroes

Don't want to lose your maze of cards

Take me away

Through all your paper dreams

Show me to a place

Where all is make believe

I'll fly through the sky

No goodbye

Sail away on a crystal sea

Ride on clouds of glass

Pastel paths

Make dreams to last

(Take me away) Take me away

Through all your paper dreams

Show me to a place (Show me a place, show me a place)

Where all is make believe

I'll fly through the sky (Oh-oh-oo-oh-oh)

No goodbye

Sail away on a crystal sea

Ride on clouds of glass (Oh-oh-oo-oh-oh)

Pastel paths

Make dreams to last
