I want to live between the silver lining
Between the darkest looming clouds
I want to sleep under sparkling sun beams
And listen to the quietest sounds
I want you to wrap me in a dream
And then lock me carefully inside
Where I decide what's fact and fiction
Somewhere pleasant for me to hide
My whole life I've been floating
Gliding ever closer to the ground
But I wish you could send me soaring
Where no weakness can be found
I want to swim within the stardust
To be enveloped with glitter and lace
A childish dream that's sugar coated
Because sometimes I don't have what it takes
I want to lie with you along the shore
And feel the sea foam through my hair
I want your hand clasped within mine
And stay with my memories there

I want to live between the silver lining
Between the darkest looming clouds
I want to sleep under sparkling sun beams
And listen to the quietest sounds
I want you to wrap me in a dream
And then lock me carefully inside
Where I decide what's fact and fiction
Somewhere pleasant for me to hide
My whole life I've been floating
Gliding ever closer to the ground
But I wish you could send me soaring
Where no weakness can be found
I want to swim within the stardust
To be enveloped with glitter and lace
A childish dream that's sugar coated
Because sometimes I don't have what it takes
I want to lie with you along the shore
And feel the sea foam through my hair
I want your hand clasped within mine
And stay with my memories there
