Paint for me a perfect scene as pure as white can be
Showing me a world like nothing I have ever seen (whoa)
When I was a child, I never stood still
Always finding adventure on those hills
My map was always changing with each passing day
I’d too many dreams to count
Help me out - I’d shout to the sky
As I wondered if someday I could fly
Even though back then, my steps, they were small
I dreamed of a leap
Thought I was strong but I was wrong
Learned that I was weak with one storm
Making me feel small, as the raindrops start to fall
Ricocheting off into my heart
I can see a million rays of light as they collide
Lighting up the world in every direction
But then they vanish, right before my eyes
And all that’s left’s the afterimage burned inside my mind
Showing me a world like nothing I have ever seen
Why did we try to cover
All those bright memories?
Like they were things we didn’t want to see
But the home we cherished
Lived inside our dreams
And that beauty I can’t speak for
But it was more beautiful
Than a sky full of diamonds - so magical
And even now
I haven’t found a single thing anywhere that could compare
