children's song

here i am for what it's worth

another well-worn page

but you're all ears so listen up

hear what i've got to say

painting colors bold and bright

don't fade into the grey

live every second like it counts

go ahead and seize the day

pick up what you want to play

and play it really loud

break some rules if just to prove

your head's not in the clouds

when you wake up write down your dreams

fill your heart and your mind

but don't grow too fast or close the door

on once upon a time

don't let another think for you

or tell you what to learn

turn away and start a blaze

be the light that burns

pick up others when they fall

and be a rock for them

lean into the wind sometimes

and never break or bend

love's a rough and rocky road

better watch your step

but play your cards and guard your heart

you'll wind up with the best

when you wake up write down your dreams

fill your heart and your mind

but don't grow too fast or close the door

on once upon a time

never locked

it's always there

you'll never need a key

come on in and be a kid

you can always ask for me

always ask for me

when you wake up write down your dreams

fill your heart and your mind

but don't grow too fast or close the door

on once upon a time
