Perfect Dream

You can't escape from falling in Cause falling in comes naturally Like the water to the sea We're all slaves to gravity You can't walk before you crawl But you sure can think before you talk and You grow up and review the facts And when you come back you'll see my story's straight My daddy had a way with words The best I ever heard They take me back to my roots Still I hear him calling Wide eyes open keep your Bright eyes open Let's go back to the start Back to the heart of it Wide eyes open keep those Bright eyes open And go back to the start We're all just a part of The perfect dream You cannot stop from growing up Then burning out eventually Cause it always ends the same You get sucked in by the flame You can't float a sinking ship But you sure can learn to live with it boy What ever way you look at it It's not the size of your ship It's the way you sail it
