I'm a dreamer by nature
and i've always been tryin'
to dream myself out of this world that i'm in
in my dreams i escape all the troubles around
and it hasn't cost a penny
for the pleasures i've found
Chorus:
what is the part
that i'll play today
beggar, a bus'ness man, king for a day?
i've played many parts
and i'm the first to agree
that i'm still lookin' round for the man that is me
I'm a dreamer by nature
and i've always been
looking for something not there
my financial position
don't bother my dreams
'cause in fairy tale money
i'm my own millionaire
Chorus
I'm a rich man in dreams
but in real life i've hid
from the fact that i've got me a wife and a kid
if i lose what i've got
then they lose it too
tell me what in this world's a poor dreamer to do
Chorus
