Dreams of a BoyCarnivals of color and dancing lights,candy for supper and camping all nightalone in a store full of toysMother's kitchen towel for a cape,I'd fly high in the sky and escapein the magical dreams of a boywhen winter streets ran cold with snow and rain,I'd follow the sun on my model trainlike it was the real McCoyI'd pull the pig-tails and golden curls,and tickle that cute neighbor girlforever in the dreams of a boywhen I almost lose my temperand day to day life robs me of joyI just close my eyes and rememberthe stardust dreams of a boywhere the pup my parents said ran away,is licking my toes wanting to playand use my sneaker for a chew toyall day passes at amusement parks,and my mom's soothing voice in the darkknew I was safe in the dreams of a boy(c)2004 Robert George
