meet me by the sea

I'm going somewhere else all alone,

the only person I'll worry about is me.

A queendom of my own,

all hidden beneath the sea. 

-

To get there I'll only need a dream,

the only oysters I'll have are shells.

There'll be not a cry or a scream,

or carriage filled by yells.

-

When I arrive it will be clean,

shining windows with marble doors.

The city will want to be seen,

and not have old gum covering its floors.

-

The people imagine every day,

not a single dream they'll forget.

Won't throw any idea away,

or use you first chance they get.

-

When I'm seen I'll be accepted,

not changed to fit the programme,

my flaws won't get me rejected,

cause' they'll take me for who I am.

-

And yes I know, it's all just a dream,

with idyllic bricks to make it.

Pick a day there or a year here?

I know I'd definitely take it.
