DREAMLAND (Music by Rich Marcil/Lyrics by Peter Preston)

"What, now? Alright. You know, one day I just sat down
and started thinking about all the things that people told me
about my life, and how I have to do something with my life, 
and make something of my life, and how I have to have a life 
and get a life. If it is to be, it is up to me. Que sera sera,

"It's like if you're not some sort of a millionaire by now,

Just to be 
Just be me

"You know, everybody just wants their guy to get in there 
and get things going and shake things up in there.  And you
can do anything if you just keep your eye on the ball, and
your nose to the grindstone, and your butt in gear, and your

things that people told me about my life, and how I have to do
something with my life, and that I have to have a life and get
a life.  If it is to be, it is up to me.  Que sera sera, whate'er
will be will be."

All my life
I had just one dream
Just to be
Just be me
