[Verse 1] Why is it so hard to dream sometimes I try to make magic but it hides in my mind I’m staring at the ceiling, tracing every line Waiting for a tiny spark to shimmer and shine [Chorus] I wish I had talents, I wish I had skills I wish I could dream up scenes and watch them un-reel Right before my eyes like fireflies in the sky Tiny little daydreams floating softly by [Verse 2] And then I think that I’m starting to think A bubble of an idea begins to blink But I get a little shy and my colors shrink So I hum a little melody and sip my drink [Chorus] Oh I wish I had talents, I wish I had skills To paint a sweet melody with a blink of an eye But I just can’t think, no I just can’t think I’m paddling through cotton clouds afraid I might sink Oh yeah, I wish I could think [Outro] Someday all these quiet thoughts will finally sing And every gentle heartbeat will grow tiny wings Oh I wish I had talents, I wish I had skills Till then I’ll keep my little dreams and love them still
