this is a story about a boy
he's nine years old his name is tom
when he dreams he drifts away
he dreams about the seven seas
pirates and the big brown ships
when he wakes up from that dream
he knows it's ok
he knows it's alright
just to go away
and fly away far away
when he wakes up from that dream
he's always sad 'cause he wants to go back
back to the world where he belongs
flying high above the world
chasing stars take a break on mars
just watching the world go by
