Dear Mama and Papa
I’ve got my big dreams,
suitcase is packed,
I know where I am headed,
I’m off on the road,
early tomorrow,
and you’ll miss me when you read this note,
the note I left,
the note I indeed left,
read this
Chorus:
Dear mama and papa,
I just wanna write,
In the big city,
Life is too short,
for me to be waiting tables,
openin and closin doors,
Dear mama and papa,
I’m on the road,
To New York,
I’m following my dreams,
of me,
and I will dance to the sun comes out,
Dear mama and papa this is me,
and it’s my duty to fulfill my dreams.
ghost popped up in my dreams yesterday,
showed me a picture of me when I’m 30,
only a few years from now,
I don’t wanna be waiting tables,
I wanna get out,
and hit the open road,
i wanna meet my dream man,
he’ll be a musician,
alike to me,
he will kiss me under the stars,
this is my dream,
I will fight to live my dream.
Chorus:
Dear mama and papa,
I just wanna write,
In the big city,
Life is too short,
for me to be waiting tables,
openin and closin doors,
Dear mama and papa,
I’m on the road,
To New York,
I’m following my dreams,
of me,
and I will dance to the sun comes out,
Dear mama and papa this is me,
and it’s my duty to fulfill my dreams.
Dear mama,
dear papa,
I’m on a plane,
and you will miss me,
but you will see me,
and read my dreams,
on the front page,
of New York Times magazine,
I am stronger than my mind,
and I will fight to conquer my demons,
telling me I wont survive,
well,
dear mama and papa,
I survived.
