How Far I'll Go

I’ve been staring at the edge of water

Long as I can remember, never really knowing why

I wish I could be the perfect daughter

But I come back to the water, no matter how hard I try

Every turn I take, every trail I track

Every path I make, every road leads back

To the place I know where I cannot go where I long to be

See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me

And no one knows how far it goes.

If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me,

One day I’ll know

If I go, there’s just no telling how far I’ll go

I know, everybody on this island seems so happy on this island

Everything is by design

I know, everybody on this island has a role on this island

So maybe I can roll with mine

I can lead with pride, I can make us strong

I’ll be satisfied if I play along

But the voice inside sings a different song, what is wrong with me?

See the light as it shines on the sea? It’s blinding

And no one knows how deep it goes

And it seems like it’s calling out to me so come find me

And let me know

What’s beyond that line will I cross that line?

See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me

And no one knows how far it goes.

If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me,

One day I’ll know

How far I’ll go
