Intro
Verse 1
I wish I was a willow
And I could sway to the music in the wind
I wish I was a lover
I wouldn't need my costumes and pretend
I wish I was a mountain
I'd pass boldly through the clouds and never end
And I wish I was a soft refrain
When the lights were out I'd play and be your friend
Bridge
nice to play on 8th fret]
I strut and fret
My hour upon the stage
The hour is up
I have to run and hide my rage
I'm lost again
I think I'm really scared
I won't be back at all this time
And have my deepest secrets shared (whoa whoa whoa whoa whoaaaa...)
I'd like to be a willow,
A lover, a mountain, or a soft refrain
But I'd hate to be a grownup
And have to try and bear my life in pain
Solo
I'd wish I was a soft refrain
When the lights were out I'd play and be your friend
[REPEAT BRIDGE]
I strut and fret
My hour upon the stage
The hour is up
I have to run and hide my rage
I'm lost again
I think I'm really scared
I won't be back at all this time
And have my deepest secrets shared (whoa whoa whoa whoa whoaaaa...)
I'd like to be a willow,
A lover, a mountain, or a soft refrain
But I'd hate to be a grownup
And have to try and bear my life in pain
I'd like to be a willow,
A lover, a mountain, or a soft refrain
But I'd hate to be a grownup
And have to try and bear my life in pain
And I have to try to bear my life in pain
And I have to try to bear my life in pain
And I have to try to bear my life in pain
And I have to try to bear my life in pain
