"In The Dream"

8 years old wearing his daddy's hardhat
he grabbed the water hose said he saw the fireman do it like that
His wagon was his ladder truck he pulled it around
And at the top of his lungs he'd make a fire engine sound

In the dream he's more than just a hero
more than anything he ever wanted to be
In the dream there's a world that lasts forever
and life is so much better than it seems
close your eyes you can be anything
In the dream

Fumbling through the attic she found her mother's old wedding dress
she said someday she'd wear it and wouldn't mama be impressed
she can just about imagine what everyone will say
when her knight in shining armor comes to carry her away

In the dream she's a pretty as a picture
More than anything she ever wanted to be
In the dream there's a world that lasts forever
and life is so much better than it seems
close your eyes you can be anything
in the dream

On the one side of the isle
sits all her family
On the other side are all his friends
from engine 53

when she looks at him I wonder if he knows
to her he's still the boy she met 20 years ago
In the dream he's more than just a hero
she's pretty as a picture like they wanted to be

In the dream there's a world that lasts forever
and life is so much better than it seems
close your eyes you can be anything
close your eyes you can be anything
In the dream
