Oh I’d like to be a ship that’s forever,
Forever lost at sea
Yes I’d like to be a ship that’s forever
Forever lost at sea
I’d rest in the ocean’s arms let the water capture me
And I’d like to be a tree that’s forever
Forever in the ground
Yes, I’d like to be a tree that’s forever,
Forever in the ground
My roots would lie deep in the earth
She would be my heart
And I’d like to be a bird that’s forever, forever flying
Yes, I’d like to be a bird that’s forever, forever flying
I’d feel the air under my wings
I’d breathe it into me
The ocean calls her children home
The river longs to be free
And I’d like to be a star that forever, forever burns
Yes, I’d like to be a star that forever, forever burns
The light of life would run through me
The fire would be my blood
The ocean calls her children home... Home
