I've been staring

Chatterbox: Pudding's Place

I've been staring

I've been staring at the edge of the water 'long as I can remember never really knowing why

I wish I could be the perfect daughter

But I come back to the water

No matter how hard I try

(Ugh, you've just gotten this song stuck in my head!)

Every turn I take every trail I track every path I make every road leads back

To the place I know where I cannot go where I long to be

See the line where the sky meets the sea? it calls me

And no one knoooows how far it gooooes

If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me,

one day I'll know, if I go there's just no telling how far I'll go.

I know, everybody on this island seems so happy on this island

This is actually one of the few songs I know all the lyrics to because my little sister was in a production of Moana and sang this song ALL THE TIME at home!

Everything is by design

I know everybody on this island has a role on this island

So maybe I can roll with mine

*stops myself from typing out the whole song because I love it so much*

I can lead with pride, I can make us strong

I'll be satisfied if I play along

But the voice inside

Sings a different song

What is wrong

With me??

See the light as it shines on the sea, it’s blinding

And no one knows how deep it goes

And it seems like it's calling out to me "So come find me!"

And let me know

What's beyond that line, will I cross that line?

```

I hope I got it right but I feel like it would be cheating to check. If I was wrong, someone can correct me.

Oh, I often check, just to make sure. I didn’t know if it was cheating.

I do too. I don't think it's cheating if you know most of it

And no one knooows how deep it goes (?)

And it seems like it's calling out to me so come find me (?) I know the beginning of this song much better!
