Lyrics: Jonah Marais ** [Verse 1] Come and lean on me Darling you can just close your eyes and dream Don't overthink, keep your eyes on the road Yeah, I've lent a shoulder all the way Chasing palm trees in LA While Minnesota's on the phone [Chorus] Oh, they can try but they're never gonna get me down Like my father used to say Hop on a train and get out of the way I've waited for my whole life, oh I Felt it just a little bit deeper, sing until the sky falls I've always been a big believer Mama raised a dreamer (Ooh-ooh) Mama raised a dreamer (Ooh-ooh) [Verse 2] Blue jeans with the red stripes Couldn't help but just say hi Or I'd regret it my whole life It's like you knew me the whole time I was nervous, I can't lie But I saw my future in your eyes [Chorus] Oh, they can try but they're never gonna get me down Like my father used to say Hop on a train and get out of the way I've waited for my whole life, oh I Felt it just a little bit deeper, sing until the sky falls I've always been a big believer Mama raised a dreamer (Ooh-ooh) Mama raised a dreamer (Ooh-ooh) [Instrumental-Solo] [Bridge] Up in the hills with city lights Look in the mirror, like who am I? Yeah, I'm starting to realize I already knew God, you heard me calling out Now I'm never slowing down I was lost but now I'm found thanks to you [Chorus with full harmonies - call and answers] They can try but they're never gonna get me down Like my father used to say Hop on a train and get out of the way I've waited for my whole life, oh I Felt it just a little bit deeper, sing until the sky falls I've always been a big believer Mama raised a dreamer (Ooh-ooh) Mama raised a dreamer (Ooh-ooh) [Outro] Mama raised a dreamer
