I saw a cloud shaped like a heart
It floated by then fell apart
A bubblegum dream in the open sky
Popped too soon but I don't ask why
The pavement sparkles after the rain
Each droplet dancing to its own refrain
A world of wonder beneath my feet
A melody that's bittersweet
Oh bubblegum dreams
They stick and fade
Sweet for a moment then they cascade
A pop of color then they're gone
But the taste lingers on and on
A soda fizz and a skipping stone
The magic in the everyday unknown
I catch a glimpse and hold it tight
But it slips away into the night
Dreams are bubbles so fragile and thin
They burst wide open
Before they begin
But I'll keep chasing with open hands
A kaleidoscope of shifting sands
Oh bubblegum dreams
They stick and fade
Sweet for a moment then they cascade
A pop of color then they're gone
But the taste lingers on and on
