Oh The Things I Could Do

I sit and stare and wonder,
About things out there up yonder
What would I be? What would I do?
Would I be me? Would I have you?
All these things boggle the mind,
Like if I moved away what would I find?
Oh the things I could see, the things I could do
But would I be me? Would I have you?
I'm happy here with my own little life,
Far away from the troubles and strife
Even though I'm still not so clear,
There's nowhere I'd rather be than here.
I know what to be, I know what to do
I know I am me, I know I have you.
