everybody's little dream
tell me who to be
I can make you happy

everybody's little dream
I hear them calling my name
but I swear I'm not the same girl

everybody's little dream
keep trying and trying
but my pockets aren't lined with
everybody's little dream

I only wanted to bring you my best
and it's not for lack of trying
maybe my best is hidden away
awaiting it's precious time

everybody's little dream
dress me up in white
the sun is always shining

everybody's little dream
there must be somewhere to go
where nobody will know me

everybody's little dream
keep trying and trying
but my pockets aren't lined with
everybody's little dream

and like the tracks of my tears
I'm following the path of least resistance
when you demanded to see my hands
you took away my second chance

and I'll never
and I'll never
and I'll never stand up to
everybody's little dream
