I've been dreaming here for hours About when everything gets better Locked my plans all in my head I'll be flying off to Paris See the paintings at the Louvre Then stuff my mouth with all their bread I'll get lost with a dead battery Meet someone and crash a party We would dance our youth away Instead I'm just wishing from the suburbs Writing thoughts under the covers Counting down until the day When this won't be pretend When this won't be pretend I could read a million pages on my bedroom floor But I keep craving, craving for more When this won't be pretend When this won't be pretend Got so many places mapped out on my board Guess I'll keep dreaming, dreaming, dreaming When this won't be pretend Oh it's been a busy year I drowned in work to drown my fears And now it's 2022 As I'm walking through the park I think of how I got this far Without a rush of deja vu Because I've been hitting the same chords I'm coping through all the same wars Don't think I'll ever be the same Till I lock the door and close my eyes And I paint my future back to life I'm counting til the day When this won't be pretend When this won't be pretend I could read a million pages on my bedroom floor But I keep craving, craving for more When this won't be pretend When this won't be pretend Got so many places mapped out on my board Guess I'll keep dreaming, dreaming, dreaming When this won't be pretend All bad things they must come to an end One foot on the ground, one foot in the clouds again Holding on to all my innocence Magic in a jar, opened every now and then So I'll see the oceans, I'll see the skies I'll want to touch all the years flying by Epic adventures, live ever after Camera roll's filled up when I'm 85 When this won't be pretend When this won't be pretend I could read a million pages on my bedroom floor But I keep craving, craving for more When this won't be pretend When this won't be pretend Got so many places mapped out on my board Guess I'll keep dreaming, dreaming, dreaming When this won't be pretend
