Dreamer

It feels like so long ago.
So long ago that I was once a boy.
Looking to the sky and wondering what was there.
Thinking someday I could go there.
Watching the fire trucks or police cars go on past.
I was sure that one day I would be there too.
It was all before me back then.
I could be the next great sports star too.
There wasn’t nothing I couldn’t do.
The future was ahead of me.
Everything just a possibility within my head.
Hopes and dreams.
Yes, hopes and dreams was where it was at.
Back then it was all mine to dream about.
No reasons to doubt.
Hope was eternal.


Then I grew as we all do.
The dreams, they are gone.
Just faded memories since long gone.
Hope is still around today.
It has just changed in a big way.
Instead of hoping for my dreams.
I hope now just to be a good man.
A man that is on the right track.
Now I cheer the next great sports star.
Watch the fire trucks race on past.
Thankful it wasn’t my place.
When the blue lights flash now.
I hope they go on past!!!

Life has changed for me.
Dreams come and go.
More often they go in fact.
So live this life before it lives you.
Never let go of the hope.
Hope is eternal.
Dare not to only dream.
Dare to chase your dreams.
