I wanna be silly for
Just a minute,
Run over that hill and
Meet the sun;
Let me be foolish for
Just one moment,
Find the pools of morning
Before it's begun.
Let me throw off my shell and
Be ridiculous,
Take off my shoes and
Run into a stream,
Or find a green meadow
Under oceans of starlight,
Then lay me down a bit
To smile and dream.
I wanna be childish for
Just a second and
Ask a flower to
Teach me to grow;
Can't I be silly for
Just a moment,
Loose myself
In the river's flow?
Let me untie my hair and
Shut my eyes just
Throw out my arms and
Feel alive
I'll breathe in the wind and
Drink up the sunlight
Without these moments I
Barely survive;
Then I'll return to
Being rational,
Resuming my tasks with a
Gratified smile;
I like to keep hidden in this
Poised exterior,
But I set my heart free
Once in awhile.
