What You Are - Patty Griffin

All the ladies, on the lake they start to dance

It’s been a long time, don’t you wish you had the chance

What do you wish you were?

Do you wish you were the silence on the moon?

Nobody knows but maybe you will be soon

I used to think the sidewalk was the way

Always waiting for my lucky day

Over and over every patch of gray

One day inside me I was lucky anyway…

What do you wish you were?

Do you wish you were the light of every star?

Nobody knows but, maybe that’s just what you are

All night count all the singing stars

Alright is where you want to know you are

What do you wish you were?

Do you wish you were the light of every star?

Nobody knows.

but maybe that’s just what you are

Nobody knows.

but maybe that’s just what you are

Nobody knows.

but maybe that’s just what you are
