child.

i used to believe
that if i kept trying
i would learn
to fly

i used to believe
that if i just cared
enough
i could change the world

i used to believe
that if i wished
on a star
it was sure to come true

i used to believe
that every time i prayed
God would listen
and smile

i used to believe
that fireflies were tiny stars
and that if i caught enough
they would be
my nightlight

i used to believe
in love at first sight
in angels
in magic
in the good
that's in every heart
and in following my dreams
no matter what

i used to believe
in unconditional love
and perfection
in romance
and friends forever
in dreams that come true

i used to believe
that anything was possible

i used to believe

i think i still do
