Di would sail around the world
look for gold and dive for pearl
but i kEmnow    Ai will never get to Dgo
i would like to win a prize, be in everybody's eyes
but it's tEmrue, Ai would probably not get tDo
my Glife has alwAays been siDmple
nEmo one ever knAows when i coAmme and gDo
and Gmy dreams are Aending aDt sunrise
anEd dreaming just don't make it Aso
Y los acordes repiten:
so i've lived without regrets
wouldn't change a thing and yet
now and then, wish that i could start again
