Lyrics

Although you think I cope

My head is filled with hope

Of some place other than here

Although you think I smile

Inside and all the while

I'm wondering about my destiny

I'm thinking about all the things

I'd like to do in my life

I'm a dreamer, a distant dreamer

Dreaming far away from today

Even when you see me frown

My heart won't let me down

Because I know there's better things to come, whoa yeah

And when life gets tough

And I feel I've had enough

I hold on to a distant star

I'm thinking about all the things

I'd like to do in my life

I'm a dreamer, a distant dreamer

Dreaming far away from today

I'm a dreamer, a distant dreamer

Dreaming far away from today

Yeah, I'm a dreamer

Ooh, ooh, ooh

I'm a dreamer, a distant dreamer

Dreaming far away from today

Yeah, I'm a dreamer

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh

I'm a dreamer
