I had a dream last night

A fish on land

Gasping for breath

Just laughed

And sang this song

Is life like this for everyone

Is life like this for everyone

I picked him up

He had a human face

I carried him

To where the water was

A grey and still and dusty thing

A grey and still and dusty thing

I dropped him in

And he could breathe again

And then he grew

And he became a man

And I knew that I would marry him

I knew that I would marry him

I had a dream last night

A fish on land

Gasping for breath

Just laughed

And sang this song

Is life like this for everyone

Is life like this for everyone
