lyrics

I wish I was a sparrow
And you were the sky
Maybe then you wouldn't have to leave
And I wouldn't have to say goodbye

I wish I was a mountain
And you were the valley below
Maybe then you wouldn't have to leave
And I wouldn't have to go

I wish I was the ocean
And you were the tide
Maybe then you wouldn't have to leave
And I wouldn't have to say goodbye

I wish I was a river
And you were the fallen snow
Maybe then you wouldn't have to leave
And I wouldn't have to go

xx
