I wish for a place where the earth doesn't shake
And if the earth won't be still then I will
And my friends can be my family
And they can be my company
And I'll take them to a party and we'll have fun
They will tell me if I am near to anywhere but here
I wish for a place
Where it's not such a waste
I can tell the girls my name
It's ok all though it's plain
Can you tell me if I'm near to anywhere but hear
If I could sleep
Then I would dream of all the things you promised me
And everything would seem better than it is
I wish for a place where I could go
Because everything here moves so slow
Can you tell me if I'm near
I wish for a place where the earth doesn't shake
And if the earth won't be still
Then you and I will
