Lyrics
Il buy me a house in the country
A house with a room and a view
Then paint me a beautiful picture
Cause thats just what all dreamers do
Il sit by the stream drinking whisky and drive me the biggest old car
Then one day theyl tell me Im foolish
Cause thats just what all dreamers are
Il have me a boat in the harbour
And sail across oceans so deep
Then dream that your right there beside me and cuddle up close till we sleep
Wel travel the world in the moonlight till all seven wonders weve seen
Then write a new best selling novel about all of the places weve been
Wel see our three children get married and even see their children too
Sit round a log fire in the evening and reminisce on how we saw it through
Retire to the house in the country
The house with the room and the view
And we will grow old there together
Cause thats just what all dreamers do
Yes thats just what all dreamers do
