And you'll be
In a world of
Pure imagination
Take a look
And you'll see
Into your imagination
With a spin
Traveling in
The world of my creation
What we'll see
Will defy

If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Wanta change the world?
There's nothing

To compare with
Pure imagination
Living there

The song "Pure Imagination" is a powerful call to let the imagination soar, to see the world in a different light outside of constraints and limitations, to believe that anything can be achieved. The first verse encourages the listener to follow the singer into a world of wonder and imagination. The lyrics do not describe a particular place or time; the journey is meant to be inward, one with the imagination. The lyrics urge the listener to take a look and see the world through their imagination where what they will see will be beyond explanation.
The second verse encourages the listener to explore their imagination, to let their mind wander, to take risks and be free to dream. The lyrics mention that there is no life to compare with pure imagination and promises that living there, one will be free if they truly wish to be. The chorus reiterates that if one wants to view paradise, they should simply look around and view it, as anything they want to do, they can achieve. Wishing to change the world is easy, and there's nothing to it.
The entire song is a plea for the listener to live their life with their imagination as their guide. It emphasizes the importance of allowing oneself to dream and explore what could be possible. By doing so, the listener is free to create and achieve anything that they desire.
