Well a wise man once said to me
If your heart don't break you won't be free
But I'm as free as a bird
Flying out over,
Flying out over the sea
I call out to the wind
But no one comes to let me in
I hear the thunder
The weight on my shoulders
The weight upon my shoulders crushin' me
CHORUS:
Shine down on this mountain
Rain down on my face
Call out to the river
To wash me out
To wash me out of this place
V2: (same as V1)
Well I wish that I was a sailor man
With the wheel of the ship held in my hand
But I don't like the water
I'm more like the anchor
I wish I was the anchor in me
Sometimes I wish I was a sin
So the ones I love wouldn't let me in
I wouldn't have to try
To find the answers
To give em all the answers they need
CHORUS
V3:
Well a wise man once said to me
If your heart don't break you won't be free
But I'm as free as a bird
Flying out over,
Flying out over the sea
If your heart don't break you won't be free
But I'm as free as a bird
Flying out over,
Flying out over the sea
I call out to the wind
But no one comes to let me in
I hear the thunder
The weight on my shoulders
The weight upon my shoulders crushin' me
CHORUS:
Shine down on this mountain
Rain down on my face
Call out to the river
To wash me out
To wash me out of this place
V2: (same as V1)
Well I wish that I was a sailor man
With the wheel of the ship held in my hand
But I don't like the water
I'm more like the anchor
I wish I was the anchor in me
Sometimes I wish I was a sin
So the ones I love wouldn't let me in
I wouldn't have to try
To find the answers
To give em all the answers they need
CHORUS
V3:
Well a wise man once said to me
If your heart don't break you won't be free
But I'm as free as a bird
Flying out over,
Flying out over the sea
