Just a day,

Just an ordinary day.

Just tryin' to get by.

Just a boy,

Just an ordinary boy.

But he was looking to the sky.

And as he asked if I would come along

I started to realize-

That everyday he finds

Just what he's looking for,

Like a shooting star he shines.

He said take my hand,

Live while you can

Don't you feel in dreams I ride in the palm of your hand

And as he spoke, he spoke ordinary words

Although they did not feel, no

For I felt what I had not felt before

You'd swear those words could heal.

And as I looked up into those eyes

His vision borrows mine.

And to know he's no stranger,

For I feel I've held him for all of time.

And he said take my hand,

Live while you can

Don't you feel in dreams I ride in the palm of your hand

in the palm of your hand

Please come with me,

See what I see.

Touch the stars for time will not flee.

Time will not flee.

Can you see.

Just a dream, just an ordinary dream.

As I wake in bed

And the boy, that ordinary boy.

Or was it all in my head?

Did he asked if I would come along

It all seemed so real.

But as i looked to the door,

I saw that boy standing there with a deal.

And he said he my take my hand,

Live while you can,

Don't you feel in dreams I ride in the palm of your hand

in the palm of your hand

in the palm of your hand

Just a day, just an ordinary day

Just tryin' to get by.

Just a boy,

Just an ordinary boy.

But he was looking to the sky.
