Pure Imagination
Leslie Bricussé and Anthony Newley Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Make a wish count to three
Come with me and you'll be
In a world of pure imagination
Take a look and you'll see
Into your imagination
Traveling in the world of my creation
What we'll see will defy explanation
If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Wanna change the world?
There's nothing to it
There is no life I know
To compare with pure imagination
Living there, you'll be free
If you truly wish to be
If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Wanna change the world?
There's nothing to it
There is no life I know
To compare with pure imagination
Living there, you'll be free
If you truly wish to be
