Sometimes I wonder
How my life would have been
Had my sole not been placed down here
In this body wrapped with skin
Had I been a deer struggling to survive
Or spend my days in an office
Avoiding my bosses wandering eyes
Had I been a dolphin dodging
Hooks on the long line
Or labour in a factory
Worried about your deadlines
Had I been a crow
On the side of the road
Just picking at a carcass
Minding cars as they go
I'd rather be a bridge
Built so strong
Then I could help you
Carry on
I'd rather be a river
That rages on
I'd still help you find your
Find your way home
Yeah
Oh Yeah Yeah Yeah
Nah, Nah, It's a shame
How tame we've become
To our own greed and need
We've succumbed
Temperature never quite right
In my mind
I'd much rather be
Spending my time
I'd rather be a bridge
Built so strong
Then I could help you
Carry on
I'd rather be a river
That rages on
I'd still help you find your
Find your way home
Sometimes I wonder
How my life would have been
What would have
Could have
Should have
I'm still wondering
