Harpo's Blues (i Wish I Was A Willow), lyric by Phoebe Snow

from the songs album unknown


I wish i was a willow
And i could sway to the music in the wind
And i wish i was a lover
I wouldn't need my costumes and pretend
I wish i was a mountain
I'd pass boldly thru the clouds and never end
I wish i was a soft refrain
When the lights were out i'd play
And be your friend
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


I'd like to be a willow
A lover, a mountain or a soft refrain
But i'd hate to be a grown-up
And have to try to bear my life in pain


I wish i was a soft refrain
When the lights were out i'd play
And be your friend
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

I'd like to be a willow
A lover, a mountain or a soft refrain
But i'd hate to be a grown-up
And have to try to bear my life in pain
