Lyrics
I was just a young man
With the sun against my eyes
Watching the world go by
And life was so lonely
I would sit and dream of wonder
But never chase it with my hands
That was foreign lands
A boundary inside me
I was just a dreamer
Dreaming of the life that I could see
Past childhood slavery
I was just a dreamer
Dreaming of the life that I could lead
That's now reality
As a child so lost in thunder
A mothers hate was all I had
The pain of her open hand
Stinging and frightening
I would hide away inside me
Dreams of maidens fair and kind
None of them cold and blind
And none of them taunt me
I was just a dreamer
Dreaming of the life that I could see
Past childhood slavery
I was just a dreamer
Dreaming of the life that I could lead
That's now reality
But dreams were all I had
To take away the pain and tragedy
Of a mothers hate for me
I was just a dreamer
Dreaming of the life that I could see
Past childhood slavery
I was just a dreamer
Dreaming of the life that I could lead
That's now reality
