I wish I lived by a riverside You can watch the seasons roll, roll, roll I wish I lived by the seaside You can watched the tide come and go I wish I lived in a high rise You can hear the neighbors' comedy show I wish I lived on the edge of a cliff Where everyday you ask, "What if?" But you'll always have one foot in this world And the other one left to dance Believe that, little girl Your wishes are all in your hands You'll always have one foot in this world Wherever it is that you land Believe that little girl She'll help you understand I wish I lived in outer space Floating without gravity I wish I lived deep in a cave Where the echoes all agree with me But you'll always have one foot in this world And the other one left to dance Believe that, little girl Your wishes are all in your hands You'll always have one foot in this world Wherever it is that you land Believe that little girl She'll help you understand Wish me light and send me love This exit doesn't mean we're done Wish me light and send me love I'll be all around you and above But you'll always have one foot in this world And the other one left to dance Believe that, little girl Your wishes are all in your hands You'll always have one foot in this world Wherever it is that you land Believe that little girl She'll help you understand
