Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
and dreams and clothes you wear
place it next to my books
and dreams and all the things
I like to share
imagine how the world would be
start to build
our own family tree
bring all your wanna do's
and wanna go's
let's build our own
records of highs and lows
please don't forget
