lyrics

If I were a bird I don't think I would fly
I'd tuck my wings and fall out of the sky
Into the ocean down under the brine
I would dive, I would dive
I'd dive deeper than light
I'm not made for flight

If I were a fish I don't think I would swim
I'd open my mouth and I'd take water in
And when all the oceans and puddles were dry
I would spread both my fins and I'd take to the sky

Salt in my eyes

If I were a rabbit with ears of gold/brown
I'd stop my running and sit myself down
Under the leaves in the hot summer sky
I would lie, I would lie, I would lie, I would lie

Salt in my eyes
