I woke up late again,
The sun was hanging on my window frame
Coffee’s getting cold,
But I’m still stuck between young and old
Everybody’s moving fast,
I’m always walking in a photograph
And every time I try to change,
The world just laughs and stays the same
But I’m not broken, just slow to begin
The road is open, I'm letting you in
’Cause I’m a daydreamer
With my head in the clouds, but my feet getting nearer
To a place I’ve never been
Where the sky doesn’t end
Yeah, I’m a daydreamer
And I won't fall asleep ‘til I know what I’m here for
I’ll take the wrong way home
Just to feel I'm not alone
Streetlights flicker on,
Another neon night I’m counting on
Got a cigarette glow
Tracing stories in the afterglow
Everyone’s chasing gold,
I just want someone to share the cold
And if tomorrow leaves me dry,
At least I tried, at least I tried
I’m not blinded, just learning to see
If I keep trying, I know I’ll break free
’Cause I’m a daydreamer
With my head in the clouds, but my feet getting nearer
To a place I’ve never been
Where the sky doesn’t end
Yeah, I’m a daydreamer
And I won't fall asleep ‘til I know what I’m here for
I’ll take the wrong way home
Just to prove I’m not alone
And maybe someday you'll hear this tune
Played too loud in a smokey room
If I could just believe in me
I’d finally touch that dream I see
I’m a daydreamer
With my head in the clouds, but my heart getting clearer
Yeah, I’ll keep stumbling on
Till all my fear is gone
I’m just a daydreamer
And the world’s gonna change when I find what I'm here for
I’ll take the long way home
Till the dream is carved in stone
