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 could

I surely would



Away, I’d rather sail away

Like a swan that’s here and gone

Its saddest song



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 only could

I surely would
