I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail

Yes I would.

If I could,

I surely would

I'd rather be a hammer than a nail.

Yes I would.

If I only could,

I surely would.



Away, I'd rather sail away

Like a swan that's here and gone



Its saddest sound



I'd rather be a forest than a street

Yes I would.

If I could,

I surely would.



I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet

Yes I would.

If I could,

I surely would.
