If I Could Lyrics

Oh, how happy I would be
If I could be a tree
I stand up so majestically
I give you fruit and leaves of green
I'd be so wise
Standing out for centuries
I would be so wise
I still be young at 103
If I could be a tree

Oh, how lucky I would be
If I could be a mountain
I give my milk to the sea
And you can climb on over me
I'd be so high
With my head up in the sky
I would be so high
I never stop to wonder why
If I could be a mountain
Be a mountain

Oh, how happy I would be
If I could be you
Now that would be something new
And you could try me for size, too
Someday I guess I'll be satisfied
With my rolling light
One day I'd be so satisfied
If I could be you

Oh, how happy I would be
If I could be anybody but me
Just see the world differently
All I knew willingy
The sky at night
Is our Sheppard's delight
The sky at night
Sheppard's pie in the sky
