If I could be what I wanted to
Believe me I'd be but only with you
I'd choose not to be a thing thats too strong
For things that are strong soon find a way
to stand alone
I'm a sailor seeking refuge
A ship tossed in a storm
I'm an orphan child looking for a home
A robin in the winter
Searching for a place thats warm
A hobo cryin' I am too tired to roam
And if I could go where I wanted to
Believe me I'd go but only with you
For long long ago too close had I grown
To you to be ever able now to go alone
To you to be ever able now to go alone
Believe me I'd be but only with you
I'd choose not to be a thing thats too strong
For things that are strong soon find a way
to stand alone
I'm a sailor seeking refuge
A ship tossed in a storm
I'm an orphan child looking for a home
A robin in the winter
Searching for a place thats warm
A hobo cryin' I am too tired to roam
And if I could go where I wanted to
Believe me I'd go but only with you
For long long ago too close had I grown
To you to be ever able now to go alone
To you to be ever able now to go alone
