Before when I gazed upon the night sky
I felt like I was on the top of the world
Now when I see the falling stars
In a fleeting magnificent display
I wish I never fell

Before when I saw those flying flowers
I would chase them around
Now when I see floating dandelions
With children blowing on their petals
I wish I would float and fade into mist

Before when you would serenade me
Your music gave my heart hope
Now when I hear that song
I wish I was deaf rather
Than able to listen to your sweet lies

Before when I was read a fairy tale
I thought of happy endings and romance
Now when I hear that story
I wish I knew from the start that...
Forever for us is just another childish fantasy
