if i was a flag i'd have no nation just the colours and the wind and if i was a church i'd have no treasure except the prayers and the hyms and if i was a seagull i'd just rise up and carry my soul across the sea drifting beyond the horizon lost by the ground to be free if i was a life-boat i'd be waiting all my life for another stormy day and if i was a dolphin i'd be playing all the time just playing my life away and if i was a kite i'd just be laughing and dragging you up to the sky setting you down on a white cloud while a seagull's floating by and the silence roars like thunder
