Lyrics:

Don't you know that you're a dreamer
You'd rather stay inside yourself, you look out at the world
'A penny for your thoughts', your mother used to say
But now you're on your own, how much must I pay

You know your dreams they make you live alone
You live alone, you die alone, what happens when your hair's gray
They say that dreams are wasted on the young
Like the dream you bought, you pale and slowly fade away

Anyone can be a dreamer who needs reality
It's more fun to pretend like a badly written song
You ramble on without direction
And you stumble to a pointless end

Days go by but you don't notice
You're locked inside your dream world, as time just disappears
While others have a love, have a laugh, have a tear
You just sit and watch the days turn into years

You know your dreams they make you live alone
You live alone, you die alone, what happens when your hair's gray
They say that dreams are wasted on the young
Like the dream you bought, you pale and slowly fade away

They say that dreams are wasted on the young
Like the dream you bought, you pale and slowly fade away
