I want to live in a world
Where dinosaurs roam free
Beasts of ancient days
Rabbits hopping in the shade of them
Monkeys playfully on the tail of them
*
I want to live in a world
Where butterflies roam free
Twice the size of dinosaurs
Landing on the nose of them
Tickling through to the toes of them
*
I want to live in a world
Where dinosaurs dream free
Of whales outside of the ocean
Swimming the skies above them
Blowing bubbles to show they love them
*
I want to live in a world
Where butterflies dream free
Of you and of me
Whispering the stories of all of us
From the noses to the toes of us
*
I want to live in a world
Where love is always the answer
No matter the worried question
Where the wild wonder of us becomes we
And makes a home, in the very heart of me
