I've been staring 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, every road leads back
To the place I know where I cannot go Where I long to be
See the line where the sky meets the sea?
It calls me And no one knows
How far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know If I go there's just no telling how far I'll
go
I know everybody on this island seems so happy, on this island
Everything is by design I know everybody on this island has a role,
on this island So maybe I can roll with mine
I can lead with pride, I can make us strong I'll be satisfied if I play along
But the 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 out to me So come find me
And let me know What's beyond that line, will I cross that
line?
See the line where the sky meets the sea?
It calls me And no one knows
How far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know How far I'll go
