There is a place where all dreams live
I go to watch from time to time
A place where all one's hopes and dreams
Are locked away within our mind
To my retreat I run in hope
I will soon escape this nightmare
A place where peace and gladness grow
And where the city sounds don't blare
Serenity and happiness
Inevitably find me here
My quiet thoughts conquer silence
And all my hopes and dreams appear
I admire them as they pass by
With such beauty and grace they all come
Each small childhood aspiration
And the realities they've become
A world of possibilities
Where I can do most anything
When limits are nonexistent
Where my mind is blossoming spring
I am sure to follow my dreams
To my haven I go each day
To look at each dream in wonder
As I'm silently swept away
