Brought Up To Believe Lyrics

Brought Up To Believe lyrics

Schoolgirls giggling in the next compartment
Lipstick ladies in their
head
Magazine styles, romantic visions
Starting their lives advertisement
fed
And they're brought up to believe in dreams
Of a better
life
Thinking about the easy years to come
Looking forward that's the
only way
That they've been taught
One day the world will be their
own
And the wheel turns around
In the twinkling of an eye
And they
find their hopes just
Castles in the sand
Older faces in the mirror
now
Chasing ghosts of yesterday
Once they were foolish, once they didn't
care
Now their eyes fill with memories
They were brought up to believe in
dreams
And a better life
They sure knew good times when they were
young
But somehow, sometimes, it's not easy to recall
All the good things
they have done
As their time slips away, only memories live on
Ever
changing with the passing of the years
How could life be so hard
Fading
wishes left to rust
Till they find the stardust
Sprinkled in their
eyes
Schoolgirls giggling in the next compartment
Lipstick ladies in
their head
Magazine styles, romantic visions
Starting their lives
advertisement fed
And they're brought up to believe in dreams
Of a better
life
Thinking about the easy years to come
Looking forward that's the only
way
They'll realise
One day the world will be their own
And they were
brought up to believe in dreams
Of a better life
They sure knew good
times when they were young
But sometimes, somehow, it's not easy to
recall
All the good things that they've done
