Dutch Wonderland

Beneath the snow lies a dream that I once had
 and I know that I'll never go back
 to the Christmas colored neighborhood
 as thoughtful as a card
 with a plastic baby Jesus in the yard
 And it was all, and it was nothing at all.
 What we didn't know, we didn't think to ask
 and the world was just a globe we used in class
 Where the gym teacher was always mad
 and as far as we could tell
 he only exercised his right to yell
 As the kings of boredom we ruled as we knew how
 or at least as long as our curfews would allow
 Couple skates, lovesick songs in moments without pause
 as Johnny Cougar amplified our cause
 And it was all, and it was nothing at all.
 And it was all, and it was nothing at all.
 We were the great believers
 that dreams came with stars
 and freedom just depended on the car
 until one day the sky fell in and freedom lost control
 and ran off the road and hit a pole
 And it was all, and it was nothing at all.
 And it was all, and it was nothing at all.
 And it was all, and it was nothing at all.
 And it was all, and it was nothing at all.
 Beneath the snow lies a dream that I once had
