Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
I could have a mansion that is higher than the trees I could have all the gifts I want and never ask please I could fly to Paris, oh, it's at my beck and call Why do I go through life with nothing at all? But when I dream, I dream of you Maybe someday you will come true I can be the singer or the clown in every room I can even call someone to take me to the moon I can put my makeup on and drive the men insane I can go to bed alone and never know his name But when I dream, I dream of you Maybe someday you will come true But when I dream, I dream of you Maybe someday you will come true
