Dreamer
Ozzy Osbourne · Other Songs - Ozzy Osbourne
Gazing through the window at the world outside
Wondering will mother earth survive
Hoping that mankind will stop abusing her, sometime
After all thereÂ’s only just the two of us
And here we are still fighting for our lives
Watching all of history repeat itself, time after time
IÂ’m just a dreamer
I dream my life away
IÂ’m just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days
I watch the sun go down like everyone of us
IÂ’m hoping that the dawn will bring a sign
A better place for those who will come after us, this time
IÂ’m just a dreamer
I dream my life away, oh yeah
IÂ’m just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days
Your higher power may be God or Jesus Christ
It doesnÂ’t really matter much to me
Without each others help there ainÂ’t no hope for us
IÂ’m living in a dream of fantasy, oh yeah yeah yeah
If only we could all just find serenity
It would be nice if we could live as one
When will all this anger hate and biggotry, be gone?
IÂ’m just a dreamer
I dream my life away, today
IÂ’m just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days, oh yeah
IÂ’m just a dreamer
WhoÂ’s searching for the way, today
IÂ’m just a dreamer
Dreaming my life away, oh yeah yeah yeah
Wondering will mother earth survive
Hoping that mankind will stop abusing her, sometime
After all thereÂ’s only just the two of us
And here we are still fighting for our lives
Watching all of history repeat itself, time after time
IÂ’m just a dreamer
I dream my life away
IÂ’m just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days
I watch the sun go down like everyone of us
IÂ’m hoping that the dawn will bring a sign
A better place for those who will come after us, this time
IÂ’m just a dreamer
I dream my life away, oh yeah
IÂ’m just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days
Your higher power may be God or Jesus Christ
It doesnÂ’t really matter much to me
Without each others help there ainÂ’t no hope for us
IÂ’m living in a dream of fantasy, oh yeah yeah yeah
If only we could all just find serenity
It would be nice if we could live as one
When will all this anger hate and biggotry, be gone?
IÂ’m just a dreamer
I dream my life away, today
IÂ’m just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days, oh yeah
IÂ’m just a dreamer
WhoÂ’s searching for the way, today
IÂ’m just a dreamer
Dreaming my life away, oh yeah yeah yeah
