There is a place in the world for everyone

I want to find my place

 


I think it across the sea,

In a faraway land

full of palm trees, monkeys, coconuts, waves, and sun

To get there is the adventure, traveling to find it.

Boat, bike, plane, train,

I'm going to find it.

 


It's not something I want to do

Its something I have to do

This far away land that lives in my dreams

 

How do I get there?

When will I get there?

 


Does everyone have a far away place

Where they can look up and see every star in the sky?

Look down and see them reflecting off the crystal clear ocean?

I can picture it now

This is my place

 


The seagulls squawking, and the dolphins calling

What if I get lost?

Will I find my way?

 


I'm scared to leave everyone behind,

To find this far away land

 


I will pretend to be a pirate,

Climb to the top of the mast,

Sailing high and low

Looking for Jack Sparrow

into the fog goes the Black Pearl

 


Up in my crows’ nest, legs wrapped around

Sun-kissed cheeks and windswept hair

On the lookout for my land
