I've been standing at the edge of the water
Long as I can remember
Never really knowing why
I wish I could be the perfect daughter
But I come back to the water
No matter how hard I try
Every turn I take,
every trail I track Every path I make and the road leads back
To the place I know where I cannot go Though I long to be
See the light as it shines on the sea It calls me
And no one knows how far it goes
If the wind in my sail or the sea stays behind me
Well,
no one knows If I go there,
just no telling how far I'll
go Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
No one knows how far it goes I know
everybody on this island
Seems so happy on this island Everything is by design
I know everybody on this island Makes a roll on this island
So maybe I can roll with mine
I can lead with pride, I can make us strong
I'd be satisfied if I play along With
a voice inside sings a different song
What is wrong with me?
See the light as it shines on the sea It's blinding
But no one knows how deep it goes
And it seems like it's calling to me
So come find me and let me know
What's beyond that line?
Will I cross that line?
See the light as it shines on the sea It calls me
And no one knows how far it goes If the
wind in my sail or the sea stays behind
me
One day I'll know how far I'll go
Standing at the edge of the water Long as I can remember
Never really knowing why
