( Dear Friend: I got your note
today, asking me what it's like to be a
mermaid. Well - I've given it a lot of thought. )
There are
ways we're not the same
When it comes to running games and races
Nobody calls my name
And you don't swim as fast as I can
There's really just no use in trying, no
You'll only feel slow
I hear the
music play
That's when I come up to watch you dancin'
How do you move that way?
And I know your schools aren't like my schools
You have recess, we have tide pools, yet
I'm willing to bet
That
dreamin'
Is somethin' that we both know how to do
You wish upon that evenin' star
And hope that it comes true
Dreams connect us even when we're far apart
'Cause dreams
Come from inside your heart
I found a
golden ring
And I don't know what its purpose is
This curious, shiny thing
And when you wish what do you long for?
What's right for you might still be wrong for me
But we might agree
That
dreamin'
Is somethin' that we both know how to do
You wish upon that evenin' star
And hope that it comes true
Dreams connect us even when we're far apart
'Cause dreams
Come from inside your heart
I know I'm
not really part of your world
But deep in my heart I'm like ev'ry other girl
And
dreamin'
Is somethin' that we both know how to do
You wish upon that evenin' star
And hope that it comes true
Dreams connect us even when we're far apart
'Cause dreams
Come from inside your heart
