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
