Lyrics

Oh my life
Is changing everyday, in every possible way
And oh my dreams
It’s never quite as it seems, never quite as it seems

I know I’ve felt like this before
But now I’m feeling it even more
Because it came from you
Then I open up and see
The person falling here is me
A different way to be

La la-a-ya-a lalala la-a-ya-a ya-a-a-a

I want more
Impossible to ignore, impossible to ignore
And they’ll come true
Impossible not to do, impossible not to do

And now I tell you openly
You have my heart so don’t hurt me
You’re what I couldn’t find
A totally amazing mind
So understanding and so kind
You’re everything to me

Oh my life
Is changing everyday, in every possible way
And oh my dreams
It’s never quite as it seems
Cause you’re a dream to me, dream to me

La-a la-a-lala-a la-a-a-a la-a-a-a la-a
La-a la-a-lala-a la-a-a-a la-a-a-a la-a
La-a la-a-lala-a la-a-a-a la-a-a-a la-a
La-a la-a-lala-a la-a-a-a la-a-a-a la-a
