If you could go anywhere you care
Future, present or past
Would you really dare go there
Even though it couldn't last
And if you could be anyone
Just for a brief amount of time
Someone else's daughter or son
Would it be such a crime
Do you really believe me
That this is entirely true
Through the magic of words you see
I find this effortless to do
Maybe I've had a bad day
Or simply bored out of my mind
I love to slip into a world far away
