Kris Allen – Beautiful & Wild lyrics

I don't want to be a poet, cause poets drown in lakes
And I don't be a sinner and watch the devil dance at my wake.
I just want to be a dreamer; a dreamer is wide awake
And I just want to be a lover even if my heart has to break.

Chorus:
If only we can see the world through the new eyes of a child
If only every boy and girl it just ain't beautiful and wild
And there's probably no saving us, but I wrote this song to try
So listen, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la!

I don't want to be president, cause I don't know each side to take
And I don't want to be a fortune teller, cause it's just tempting faith.
And I just want to be a drop of water fall down in a storm of rain
Living life in the deep blue sea and rise back up again!

Chorus:
If only we can see the world through the new eyes of a child
If only every boy and girl it just ain't beautiful and wild
And there's probably no saving us, but I wrote this song to try
So listen, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la!

We've got the same desires, burning fires
And the middle of middle my songs.
But I'm your golden silver, won't last forever,
So won't you let it go!
Cause we were born to be dreamers, dreamers wide awake.
We were born to be lovers even if hearts have to break.

Chorus:
If only we can see the world through the new eyes of a child
If only every boy and girl it just ain't beautiful and wild
And there's probably no saving us, but I wrote this song to try
So listen, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la!
So listen, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la!
