Lyrics

I dreamed I was an eagle soaring above the heights
Diving down canyon walls, nothing to stop my flight
Maybe I can't go flying I'm not like a bird
Maybe all I really want is to be seen and heard

I dreamed I was a whale swimming beneath the waves
No boundaries or borders to block my whale waves
Maybe I can't go swimming. I'm not like a fish
Maybe all I really want is to feel my mother's kiss

Maybe all I really want is not to have to dream
I'll wake up outside this cage before I turn fifteen
Send me the wings of an eagle
Send me the song of a whale
Send me the things that I dream of
So I can fly free from this jail

I dreamed I was a cheetah running across the plain
A cloud of dust in savannah grass. I cannot be contained
Maybe I can't go running. I'm not like a cat
Maybe all I really want is not to feel trapped

Maybe all I really want is not to have to dream
I'll wake up outside this cage before I turn fifteen
Send me the wings of an eagle
Send me the song of a whale
Send me the things that I dream of
So I can fly free from this jail

Maybe all I really want Is not to have to dream
I'll wake up outside this cage before I turn fifteen
