The Swan

I see people walking by
I cannot walk, so I want to cry
I hear birds singing in the sky
Or are they laughing at me?
For that I can never fly

I stay quietly in the pond
Thinking how lovely is the sunshine
As my lonely afternoon quietly goes by
Who dares to look down into the water?
Who has that pair of caring eyes?

I have been looking for you
And a way back to you, my dear home
But when I finally discover you again
You are not you anymore, and I am not me
Who lost the game? Or who betrayed?
Who turned us away? Or who stayed?

And to where we belong?
And to where we belong?

For the years that have passed
I have been trying so hard to remember you
To picture you in my head
To taste you in my mind; and I endured
The pain, only to grow and grow

For the years that have passed
I diluted my sharpness and cleared my soul
To maintain composed when betrayed
To remain silent when confronted; and I endured
The loneliness, only to grow and grow

And finally I see a swan within myself

I thought you would be opening your arms
To welcome me back home
But when I finally discover you again
You are not you anymore, and I am not me
Who lost the dream? Or who obtained?
Who turned us away? Or who stayed?

And to where we belong?
And to where we belong?

生活在別處，夢想更是在別處。對於有一顆天鵝之心的女孩子來說，更屬於別處。
