Magic Carpet Ride

I like to dream
Yes, yes, right between the sound machine
On a cloud of sight, I drift in the night
Any place it goes is right
Goes far, flies near to the stars away from here
Well, you don't know what we can find
Why don't you come with me, little girl
On a magic carpet ride?
Well, you don't know what we can see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me?
Fantasy will set you free
Close your eyes, girl
Look inside, girl
Let the sound take you away
Last night I held Aladdin's lamp
So I wished that I could stay
Before the thing could answer me
Well someone took, took the lamp way
I looked around
A lousy candle was all I found
Well, you don't know what we can find
Why don't you come with me, little girl
On a magic carpet ride?
Well, you don't know what we can see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me?
Fantasy will set you free
Close your eyes, girl
Look inside, girl
Let the sound take you away
You don't know what we can find
Why don't you come with me, little girl
On a magic carpet ride?
Well, you don't know what we can see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me?
