A
Dreamer's
Paradise
Beyond
the
rim
of
pomp
and
circumstance,
Above
the
world
of
tragedy
and
woe,
There
is
a
place
where
I
escape
to
dance;
It
is
a
place
where
only
dreamers
go.
When
hurriedness
becomes
my
way
of
life,
And
agitations
seem
to
never
cease,
Imagination
lifts
me
far
from
strife
Into
a
realm
of
pure
enchanted
peace.
While
there
I
leave
my
cluttered
life
behind
To
float
on
clouds
of
calm
tranquility,
Where
breezes
softly
kiss
my
burdened
mind
And
sunbeams
play
to
make
my
spirit
free.
As
if
on
wings
that
gently
fan
the
air,
I
am
released
to
drift
without
a
care.
