Beautiful & Wild

I don't want to be a poet,

cause poets drown in lakes

And I don't be a sinner

and watch the devil dance at my wake.

I just want to be a dreamer;

a dreamer is wide awake

And I just want to be a lover

even if my heart has to break.

If only we can see the world

through the new eyes of a child

If only every boy and girl

it just ain't beautiful and wild

And there's probably no saving us,

but I wrote this song to try

So listen, la, la, la, la...

I don't want to be president,

cause I don't know each side to take

And I don't want to be a fortune teller,

cause it's just tempting faith.

And I just want to be a drop of water

fall down in a storm of rain

Living life in the deep blue sea

and rise back up again!

If only we can see the world

through the new eyes of a child

If only every boy and girl

it just ain't beautiful and wild

And there's probably no saving us,

but I wrote this song to try

So listen, la, la, la, la...

We've got the same desires,

burning fires

And the middle of my songs.

But I'm your golden silver,

won't last forever,

So won't you let it go!

Cause we were born to be dreamers,

dreamers wide awake.

We were born to be lovers

even if hearts have to break.

If only we can see the world

through the new eyes of a child

If only every boy and girl

it just ain't beautiful and wild

And there's probably no saving us,

but I wrote this song to try

So listen, la, la, la, la...

So listen, la, la, la, la...

So listen, la, la, la, la...
