Kris Allen - Beautiful & Wild lyrics

I don't wanna be a poet Cause poets drown in lakes And I don't wanna be a sinner And watch the devil dance at my wake I just wanna be a dreamer A dreamer that's wide awake I just wanna be a lover Even if my heart has to break If only we could see the world Through the new eyes of a child If only every boy and girl Could just stay beautiful and wild And there's probably no saving us But I wrote this song to try So let's sing la la la... I don't wanna be president Cause I don't know which side to take And I don't wanna be a fortune teller Cause that's just tempting fate I just wanna be a drop of water Fall down in a storm of rain Live a life in the deep blue sea And rise back up again If only we could see the world Through the new eyes of a child If only every boy and girl Could just stay beautiful and wild And there's probably no saving us But I wrote this song to try So let's sing la la la... We've got the same desires, Burning fires In the middle of our souls But all your gold and silver Won't last forever So... won't you let it go? Cause we were born to be dreamers Dreamers wide awake And we were born to be lovers Even if our hearts have to break If only we could see the world Through the new eyes of a child If only every boy and girl Could just stay beautiful and wild And there's probably no saving us But I wrote this song to try So let's sing la la la... So let's sing la la la... So let's sing la la la...
