You're staring out to sea
You wonder where you'd be
If everything you are somehow
Were different in a way
Your life was not the same
A billion things led up
To this time
If you were born another time
You could travel through the rain
On a European train
Your destination ends ahead
Maybe you live on a desert plain
Waiting for the rain
You'd never be the same somehow
If you were born another time
If the tree of life were broken
And you never were who you are
It's a curious mix of fate
And your destiny has its place
If you were born another time
