We hit Starbucks, roll down the top

It's the last time Carrie and I will drive to the beach

'Cause we think it's time to grow up

Well I've never been good at that

I wanna live for today

I have such good intentions

And my dreams are no less than that of yesterday

Does anyone really know

Where we should go?

Chorus:

Meet me where we can dream

Down by the river

Everybody's got a dream

Down by the sea

Meet me where we can dream

By the river

Who knows where it may lead? Yeah

The radio's blasting and we're singing

And I'm feeling unstoppable

When did I let life become so damn hard?

Well I'm heading to what dreams are made of

I won't turn my back to the stars

Oh yesterday

Does anyone really know

Where we should go?

Meet me where we can dream

Down by the river

Everybody's got a dream

Down by the sea

Meet me where we can dream

By the river

Does anybody really know

Where we should go?

Chorus

Meet me where we can dream... oh, meet me

Meet me where we can dream... down by the river

Meet me where we can dream... yeah

Meet me where we can dream (repeats)
