I Am My Own Invention

Nothing can exist
Til you dream it first
Everyone knows this
Then it will arrive
New and unrehearsed
Vivid as a kiss.

Dreamers and children
Can conjure things easily
Things their eyes through
they're closed can see
Not the the way things are
but how they should be...
this is what is true
Wish upon a star, close your eyes and
see all that you can do
Try to remember the way you were when you were her
The little girl that's there inside of you.

I am my own invention
Meeting each day anew
Can you imagine being
your own invention too?

Dreams will always start with a happy end
Waiting to come true
So long ago.

Lucid as a heart, welcome as a friend
Gossamer and new.

Help me so I can remember dreams to
share with dreams to spare
Imagining a dreamer just like you.

I am my own invention... finally I can see
I am my own invention
Tomorrow can't be all it should be till
I've invented me.
