First surfaced on Cigarettes & Alcohol, and was probably elbowed off Definitely Maybe in favour of Slide Away. Since then the chorus alone has guaranteed it's popularity with Oasis fans. "It's about growing up but not growing old," says Noel, echoing a John Lennon belief that you won't get anything unless you've got the vision to imagine it.

lyrics When I was young I thought I had my own key I knew exactly what I wanted to be Now I'm sure You've boarded up every door Lived in a bubble Days were never ending Was not concerned About what life was sending Fantasy was real Now I know much About the way I feel   I'll paint you the picture Coz I don't think you live 'round here no more I've never even seen the key to the door We only get what we will settle for While we're living the dreams we have as children Fade away   Now my life has turned another corner I think it's only best that I should warn you Dream it while you can Maybe some day I'll make you understand I'll paint you the picture Coz I don't think you live 'round here no more I've never even seen the key to the door We only get what we will settle for   While we're living the dreams we have as children Will fade away
