I wish for a place where the earth doesn't shake
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
Can you tell me if I'm 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 okay although it's plain
Can you tell me if I'm near to anywhere but here
If I could sleep, then I could dream of what you promised me
And everything would seem better than it is
I wish for a place that I could go
Cause everything here moves so slow
Can you tell me if I'm near to anywhere but here
I wish for a place where the earth doesn't shake
If the earth won't be still then you and I will
Can you tell me if I'm near to anywhere but here
