  • I was a little girl alone in my little world
    Who dreamed of a little home for me
    I played pretend between the trees
    And fed my house guests bark and leaves
    And laughed in my pretty bed of green

    I had a dream
    That I could fly from the highest swing
    I had a dream

    Long walks in the dark through woods grown behind the park
    I asked God who I'm supposed to be
    The stars smiled down on me
    God answered in silent reverie
    I said a prayer and fell asleep

    I had a dream
    That I could fly from the highest tree
    I had a dream

    Now I'm old and feeling gray
    I don't know what's left to say about this life I'm willing to leave
    I lived it full and I lived it well
    There's many tales I've lived to tell
    I'm ready now, I'm ready now
    I'm ready now to fly from the highest wing

    I had a dream Writer/s: Priscilla Natalie Hartranft
