Maggie Reilly - Brought Up To Believe Lyrics
Schoolgirls giggling in the next compartmentLipstick ladies in their headMagazine styles romantic visionsStarting their lives advertisement fedAnd they're brought up to believe in dreams of a better lifeThinking about the easy years to comeLooking forward that's the only way that they've been taughtOne day the world will be their ownAnd the wheel turns aroundIn the twinkling of an eyeAnd they find their hopes just castles in the sandOlder faces in the mirror nowChasing ghosts of yesterdayOnce they were foolish, once they didn't careNow their eyes fill with memoriesThey were brought up to believe in dreams and a better lifeThey sure knew good times when they were youngBut somehow, sometimes, it's not easy to recallAll the good things they have doneAs their time slips awayOnly memories live onEver changing with the passing of the yearsHow could life be so hardFading wishes left to rustTill they find the stardust sprinkled in their eyesSchoolgirls giggling in the next compartmentLipstick ladies in their headMagazine styles romantic visionsStarting their lives advertisement fedThey were brought up to believe in dreams of a better lifeThinking about the easy years to comeLooking forward that's the only way to realizeOne day the world will be their ownAnd they're brought up to believe in dreams of a better lifeThey sure knew good times when they were youngBut sometimes, somehow, it's not easy to recallAll the good things that they have done
