I used to believe in magical creatures

I'd meet Prince Charming with all the right features

And ride off in the sunset on a horse

That's before I knew about divorce

 

When I would go to sleep, I'd always say, "Mom

Keep the door open, and please leave the light on"

'Cause I thought monsters lived under the bed

That's before I knew they walk the streets instead

 

I wanna live in a world

Where people don't get hurt

And everybody's got enough money

Where nobody ever gets sick

Or has to skip a meal

I wanna live in a world where Santa's real

 

I used to think superheroes existed

If there was smoke in the sky, they'd come fix it

'Cause good guys always won in the end

But that's before I knew that it was all pretend

 

I wanna live in a world

Where people don't get hurt

And everybody's got enough money

Where nobody ever gets sick

Or has to skip a meal

I wanna live in a world where Santa's real

 

I used to be young and naive

Until I saw things I couldn't unsee

 

I wanna live in a world

Where people don't get hurt

And everybody's got enough money

Where nobody ever gets sick

Or has to skip a meal

I wanna live in a world

Where things I believed as a kid

Actually exist

 

And everybody's good to each other

Where nobody ever gets drunk

And gets behind the wheel

I wanna live in a world

Live in a world

I wanna live in a world where Santa's real
