I am a lonesome beached wale struggling to go back to the water
i'm different from these people
they enjoy different things
we wont get along
and i'm so unhappy
I want to be back where i can breathe
I'm suffocating help me.
I'm walking along the beach
a cool crisp breeze
the soft sand running through my toes
my hair blowing gently
and the waves sound so soothing
I pass by a whimpering whale
alone beached and sad
I would help if i could
I don't know how to
but i know he must return to the water
I'm going to help in anyway i can.
I see a young girl walking towards me
and her toes are in the sand
and her hair blows in the wind
she is so happy and so free
I need to be in a place that i can feel that
In my own way.
We become friends, the whale and I
and as much as we understand each other
we belong in different places.
Goodbye my friend, goodbye
Good luck to you, goodbye
I'm all alone back in the water but i'm where i need to be
I'm free
I'm all alone on the sand but i'm where i need to be
i am free
I miss my friend
