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 waterNo 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 islandSeems so happy on this island Everything is by design
I know everybody on this islandHas 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?
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me One day I'll know how far I'll go
