be like that...

he spends his nights watching the stars on a big screen,
then he lies awake and wonders why can't that be me?
cause in his life he's filled with all these good intentions,
he's left alot of things he hasn't and would rather not mention right now.
and just before he says goodnight.. he looks up at the stars and he says,

if it could be like that? what would i do?
just to live one day in those shoes...

trying ta find something to hold on to can be pretty tough,
there's so many things to consider.
there's so many things that can happen to alter a decision previously made.
there's too many things happening at once, for everything to be a fairytale.

but if it could be like that? what would i do?
just to live one day in those shoes...

----

typing words onto a illuminated screen in the dark,
thinking of all that could have been and deciding it never will be there and then.
typing words onto a illuminated screen in the dark,
thinking of all that can be,
maybe,
just a decision to be made...

---

looking at the things old and new,
he decides to follow his heart and not that of others.
his mind's too tired to want to reconsider...
he hopes there's some form of understanding...
really, he wishes there was some other way...
but "somethings change",
for the better or worse....
and so the 'quiet little boy' must now say
"goodnight, my dream of old..."
