Phoebe Snow - Harpo's Blues Lyrics
I wish I was a willowAnd I could sway to the music in the windAnd I wish I was a loverI wouldnt need my costumes and pretendI wish I was a mountainId pass boldly thru the clouds and never endI wish I was a soft refrainWhen the lights were out Id playAnd be your friendI strut and fret my hour upon the stageThe hour is upI have to run and hide my rageIm lost againI think Im really scaredI wont be back at all this timeAnd have my deepest secrets sharedId like to be a willowA lover, a mountain or a soft refrainBut Id hate to be a grown-upAnd have to try to bear my life in painI wish I was a soft refrainWhen the lights were out Id playAnd be your friendI strut and fret my hour upon the stageThe hour is upI have to run and hide my rageIm lost againI think Im really scaredI wont be back at all this timeAnd have my deepest secrets sharedId like to be a willowA lover, a mountain or a soft refrainBut Id hate to be a grown-upAnd have to try to bear my life in pain
