Dm7
I've been staring at the edge of the water
Am

'Long as I can remember, never really knowing why

I wish I could be the perfect daughter
Am

But I come back to the water, no matter how hard I try
Am
Every turn I take, every trail I track
G
Every path I make, every road leads back
C
To the place I know, where I can not go
Fm
Where I long to be

See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me

And no one knows, how far it goes

If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me

I know, everybody on this island has a role on this island

So maybe I can roll with mine

What is wrong with me?

See the light as it shines on the sea? It's blinding

And let me know, what's beyond that line, will I cross that line?

See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me
