To Be A Dreamer - Nils Lofgren

To Be A Dreamer - Nils Lofgren
Written by：Nils Lofgren
I brought you into this world to be a dreamer
One heart like a lion still my pals shut me down
They laugh in my face you know they need a clown
I swing from the trees to my parallel bars
I feel so removed like being from mars
Oh I miss love like water when all there is coke
I dull the pain with hard liquor and smoke
Bet my best friend I'd be dead at 23
And I lost cause of one thing my father said to me
He said son I brought you here to dream
Life's not what the world would have it seem
The call of the wild makes you a believer
I brought you into this world to be a dreamer
Always did love protection I took my father's advice
Soon my mind was being massaged by friends once cold as ice
Tried to take it serious in the end I was barely amused
I realized that papa's thoughts was the only ones I could use
He said son I brought you here to dream
Life's not what the world would have it seem
The call of the wild makes you a believer
I brought you into this world to be a dreamer
Yes I brought you into this world to be a dreamer
Dream
To be a dreamer
To be a dreamer
To be a dreamer
To be a dreamer
