Lyrics
As I Can
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Our life in the water
Is not what it once was
I was thinking yesterday
That I might go ashore
But This is where I'll stay
And This is where I live
As I can
As I can
Oh, As I can
As I can
Friends of mine were taken
Taken to a theme park
It's one thing to move on your own
It's another to be moved
I watch out for the boats
And I watch out for the nets
As I can
As I can
Oh, As I can
As I can
To think it's enough
To think it's enough
A sea is full of beauty
The world is full of light
And I think about my children
And I feel they still fight
I wish the water clean
And I wish the inlands green
As I can
As I can
Oh, As I can
As I can
As I, As I, As I can
As I can
