Wish away
Dream a pretty little dream
Dance your heart out
To a song that was never there
Pray today
Reality is not what it seems
Pour your heart out
That pretty little dream

Roses have their thorns
You by far had the most
Growing inside and outside and God knows where
Silver linings polished to gold
Will ruin the wearer's clothes
Making stains of chalky white and gray

Stay away
Between lines of text there's teeth
That bite you if you seek
The answers to your prayer
They'll scar with little care
When you wake
That glass slipper will fall from your feet
Or that's much too fragile
To be your dream

Roses have their thorns
You by far had the most
Growing inside and outside and God knows where
Silver linings polished to gold
Will ruin the wearer's clothes
Making stains of chalky white and gray

Watch your dream for soon it will be
A memory long ago
Stay with me and keep a little dream
Believe on but run on
And it will grow

Roses have their thorns
You by far had the most
Growing inside and outside and God knows where
Silver linings polished to gold
Will ruin the wearers clothes
Making stains of chalky white and gray
