When we fantasise we leave the world behind,
Creating wonderful pictures in our mind.
These imaginary pictures help us to feel,
We can cope with this world for real.

We dream about all kinds of things,
Wealth, health and love even diamond rings.
Of places far away a place where we want to be,
And in our dreams to this place we flee.

Thoughts of two people you and I,
Loving each other until we die.
In our fantasies we live without pain,
Are they real when they happen time and again.

We must be careful not to live only in dreams,
It would be all too easy or so it seems.
So come back to earth live with reality,
We cannot live forever trapped in our fantasy.
