[Intro: Barbra Streisand & Seth MacFarlane]
Does the world ever frighten you?
Sometimes
Well, what do you do about that?
Well, I just close my eyes
Make a wish
I go into my mind, and um
Create the world the way I want it to be (Huh)
I'll show ya

[Verse 1: Barbra Streisand & Seth MacFarlane]
Come with me and you'll be
In a world of pure imagination
Take a look and you'll see
Into your imagination
We'll begin with a spin
Traveling in the world of our creation
What we'll see will defy
Explanation

[Verse 2: Barbra Streisand, Seth MacFarlane, both]
If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Want to change the world?
There's nothing to it
There is no life I know
To compare with pure imagination
Living there, you'll be free
If you truly wish to be

[Bridge: Barbra Streisand & Seth MacFarlane]
You can save our every situation
Life in there's a sensational sensation

[Verse 3: Barbra Streisand, Seth MacFarlane, both]
If you want to see magic lands
Close your eyes and you will see one
Want to be a dreamer, be one
Anytime you please, and please save me one
There is no place to go
To compare with pure imagination
So go there (We'll go there)
To be free (Anywhere)
If you truly wish to be

[Outro: Barbra Streisand, Seth MacFarlane, both]
So, go there
We'll go there
To be free
Everywhere
If you truly wish to be

Barbra Streisand

Barbra Streisand is an Oscar-winning, Tony-winning, Emmy-winning, Golden Globe-winning Broadway legend, film star, movie director and one of the biggest-selling recording artists of all time - a staggering amount of accomplishments for someone whose mother insisted she not to go into show business.

By the time she was sixteen, she’d graduated high school and was living on her own in Manhattan. After winning a talent contest at a gay bar on West 9th Street, Streisand’s ‘spellbinding’ voice quickly became popular at New York clubs and in Broadway shows. After appearances on a number of popular television shows including The Tonight Show, Streisand signed with Columbia Records and released several top 10 albums in the 1960s, scoring two US top 40 hits with “People” and “Second Hand Rose”.

Her success as a recording artist continued through the 1970s with several more gold/platinum-certified albums and four US “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers”, “No More Tears”, the Oscar-winning “The Way We Were”, and the Academy Award-winning “Evergreen (Love Theme from A Star Is Born)”. The 1980s would begin with Streisand’s biggest-selling release of her career Guilty, a collaborative effort with BeeGees member Barry Gibb. It topped the albums chart in several countries and as did its lead single “Woman In Love”.
