if i could have chosen where god would hide his heaven

i would wish for it to be in the salt and swell of the ocean

carried by the currents to all continents' shores

reaching into depths where the sun's light has never shown

mixed with algae and coral breathed in by the sharks and dolphins

sailed by tanker ships, private yachts, swam in by tourists

working it's way up through inlets, lakes, and rivers

swamps and estuaries down through limestone into the aquifer

Em

purified by the county, pumped through pipes and out faucets

Bm D

filled into a glass to meet the thirst of our children

Bm A/slide/Bm A/slide/Bm A/slide/Bm

if i could have chosen, i would have been born a woman

my mother once told me she would have named me laura

i would would grow up to be strong and beautiful like her

one day i'd find an honest man to make my husband

we would have two children, build our home on the gulf of mexico

our family would spend hot summer days at the beach together

the sun would kiss our skin as we played in the sand and water

and we would know we loved each other without having to say it

at night we would sleep with the windows of our house left open

letting the cool ocean air sooth the sunburned shoulders of our children

there is an ocean in my soul where the waters do not curve

there is an ocean in my soul where the waters do not curve
