Stars in your eyes little one
Where do you go to dream
To a place we all know
The land of make believe

Shadows tapping at your window
Ghostly voices whisper
Will you come and play
Not for all the tea in China
Or the corn in Carolina
Never, never ever

They're running after you babe

Run for the sun little one
You're an outlaw once again
Time to change
Superman will be with us while he can
In the land of make believe

Something nasty in your garden's waiting
Patiently 'til it can have your heart
Try to go but it won't let you
Don't you know it's out to get you
Running, keep on running

Your world is turning from night to day
Your dream is burning far, far away

Into the blue, you and I
To the circus in the sky
Captain Kidd's on the sand
With the treasure close at hand
In the land of make believe

In the land of make believe

(Run for the sun, run for the sun)

I've got a friend who comes to tea
And no one else can see but me
He came today, but had to go
To visit you
You'll never know
