How Far I'll Go

She's been standing at the edge of the water
Long as she can remember, never really knowing why
She wished she could be the perfect daughter
But she comes back to the water, no matter how hard she tries

Every turn she takes, every trail she tracks
Every path she makes, every road leads back
To the place she knows where she can not go
Where she longs to be

She says

See the line where the sky meets the sea it calls me
And no one knows, how far it goes
With the wind in my sail on the sea behind me
One day I'll know if I go there's just no telling how far I'll go

She knows, everybody on this island seems so happy on this island
Everything is by design
Oh she knows, everybody on this island has a role on this island
She says maybe I can roll with mine

She can lead with pride, she can make them strong
She'll be satisfied if she plays along
For the voice inside sings a different song
What is wrong with me?

See the light as it shines on the sea it's blinding
And no one knows, how deep it goes
And it seems like it's calling to me, come find me
One day I'll know, what's beyond that line, will I cross that line?

I see the line where the sky meets the sea it calls me
And no one knows, how far it goes
And the wind in my sail on the sea behind me
One day I'll know, how far I'll go
