Story behind the song
Trying to come to grips with the fact that I allowed someone I truely loved to slip away.
Lyrics
Of chocolate ice cream and lemon drops,
And Christmas all year that never stops.
These things make up a little childa019s fantasies.
But wait a few years and youa019ll see a change,
It seems a childa019s dreams dona019t stay the same.
Not in a world that has forgotten how to dream.
And I never really thought this could happen to me,
My dreams always seemed to be so strong inside of me.
So my dear if youa019ll come with me and try to make them see;
Dona019t let them take the little child in me.
But the world doesna019t run on lemon drops,
And chocolate ice cream wona019t get you to the top.
These kind of things they say are made for a child.
Theya019ll say a01Cdreaming my friend wona019t make you a dime,
Why do you just waste your time?
Now go join all the others there in the line.a01D
And I prayed so hard it would never happen to me,
My dreams are all that I have left here inside of me.
So my dear, I beg of you, help me make them see;
(so they) wona019t take that little child in me.
For to hope and to dream are all that I have left.
If therea019s anything else, ita019s just unhappiness.
And I dona019t know if I can go on all alone.
But with your love I know that I can survive,
And maybe even make tomorrow come alive.
And together with you, we can build a life, from our dreams.
So my dear, the truth is this-- it is plain to see;
We were never meant to dream alone, No it just cana019t be.
So my dear, just take my hand and you know they will see-
Never can they touch the child thata019s we.
So my dear come share your dreams with me.
Wona019t you dear, come dream a while with me?
Please my dear come dream forever with me.
