Album: Fathoms Deep
oh, how happy I would be if I could be a tree
I stand up so majestically
I give you fruit and leaves of green
I’d be so wise
standing out for centuries
I would be so wise
I still be young at 103
if I could be a tree
oh, how lucky I would be if I could be a mountain
I give my milk to the sea
and you can climb on over me
I’d be so high
with my head up in the sky
I would be so high
I never stop to wonder why
if I could be a mountain
be a mountain
oh, how happy I would be if I could be you
now that would be something new
and you could try me for size, too
someday I guess I’ll be satisfied
with my rolling light
one day I’d be so satisfied
if I could be you
oh, how happy I would be if I could be anybody but me just see the world differently
all I knew willingy
the sky at night
is our Sheppard’s delight
the sky at night
Sheppard’s pie in the sky
