When I was a little child

I could be anything I wanted

Make believing

Was just by the way

One day be a hero

One day be a legend

One day be in New Orleans

And the next I'd be home again





I used to dream that I could fly over the moon

There was nothing that I couldn't do

And now as I sit

I hope that some day soon

I'll go over with you.





My friends used to tell me

There were things a girl shouldn't do

Oh but I just wanna try anyway

To me that was nothing new

I'd play all their ball games

The boys would say 'go on just let her'

Oh but anything that they could do

I'd wanna do better





I used to dream that I could fly over the moon

There was nothing that I couldn't do

Now as I sit I hope that some day soon

I'll go over with you
