Album: Pearl Days (2004)

Swan

Walking by yourself in the cold, cold winter
Wrapped up in your coat like it's a magic blanket
You say "No matter where I go they all look like strangers".
You see the world seems like the fairytale that it isn't.

Dream on, dream on
there's nothing wrong
If you dream on, dream on
Of being a swan
but I know you're thinking...

And now you're looking at the sky talking to your angel
Could he turn this dirty street into a flying carpet?
But then you say: "I am not scared of anything"
Such a shy lie silent as the snow that is fallin' down.

Dream on, dream on
there's nothing wrong
If you dream on, dream on
Of being a swan.
But I know you're thinking
"How am I gonna make it through?"
Dream on, dream on
there's nothing wrong

You're on the run
you don't look back
what did you see?
what did you get?
you're on the run
trying to forget
but in the end
is it so bad?
Being a girl
Being a girl

Dream on, dream on
there's nothing wrong
If you dream on, dream on
Of being a swan
But I know you're thinking
"How am I gonna make it through?"
Dream on, dream on
there's nothing wrong
If you dream on, dream on
Of being a swan.
Of being a swan.
If you dream on, dream on
Of being a swan.
Of being a swan.
