I wish for a place where the earth doesn't shake If the earth won't be still, then I will and my friends can be my family, and they can be my company then I'll take them to a party and we'll have fun can you tell me if I'm near to anywhere but here? I wish for a place where it's not such a waste I can tell the girls my name, it's okay although it's plain If I could sleep then I would dream of what you promised me and everything would seem better than it is. I wish for a place where I could go 'cause everything here moves so slow. Can you tell me if I'm near to anywhere but here? I wish for a place where the earth doesn't shake. If the earth won't be still, then you and I will. Can you tell me if I'm near to anywhere but here?
