Goodbye Dreamer

Hey, goodbye dreamer
What you're feeling can't be right
And hello schemer
You've got your plans all laid out
Not too far along
Just taking a stepping stone
Before anyone knows you're out, out of sight
Where's all the love
Has it all died away
All fallen down
Your great ideas for someday
Too upsetting, better forgetting
Could it be, you grew up in a day
The world will offer
What it has to give
If you find out too late
You'll still find you want to live
Hey, goodbye dreamer
Hey, goodbye dreamer
Hey, goodbye dreamer
(TO FADE)
