There was a little fish in a big black pond
Always wondering 'bout the unknown worlds beyond
Unlike all the others he refused a life of security
Unlike all the others he was born to roam free

Sometimes he wished he could be like them
Not thinking 'bout a goddamn thing
Sometimes he wished he could dream like them
Maybe then, maybe then

Oh the fisher girl she love to love and dance
Carried her heart on her sleeve
and light in the palm of her hand
Unlike all the others, she
she took the time to see and feel
Unlike all the others, she let go of these intricacies

Sometimes I wished I could be like her
Not giving in to this outide pressure
Sometimes I wish I could move like her
Maybe then, maybe then

I'd get some peace of mind, my darling
I'd get some sleep 'cause I'm tired of fighting

Sometimes I wish I could be like them
Not thinking about a goddamn thing
Sometimes I wished I could dream like them
Maybe then, maybe then

I'd get some peace of mind, my darling
I'd get some sleep 'cause I'm tired of fighting
