lyrics

I wish I was born on an island in the sea.
Then all these waves that crash around
Wouldn’t sound so strange,
They wouldn’t sound so strange to me.

I wish I was raised on a mountain in the sky.
Then all these things that conspire and try
To bring me down,
They would seem so far below.

When I feel down, and I am forlorn,
I have come this far, how can I ask for more.

I wish I could see my life through your eyes,
Know what you know and taste your surprise.
When I let you down,
I curl up.

I wish I could die with a song in my heart,
Your hand in mine and the knowledge we sought.
When I go down I could know
That we had done all right

When I feel down, and I am forlorn,
I have come this far, how can I ask for more.
