I’ve spent my whole life dreaming
I’ve spent my whole life reaching
Teach me how to be an oxen
Steadfast in the rice field
Teach me how to be a spider
Diligent in her corner
I’ve spent my whole life dreaming
I’ve spent my whole life reaching
Maybe I could fly to a new haven
Watching clouds stretch across like angel carpet
Maybe I could dive into the ocean
One day I’ll swim in bliss out in the open
I’ve spent my whole life dreaming
And soon that dream will catch up to me
When I find myself sitting in my kitchen, gently smiling
