  • 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

    Every turn I take, every trail I track
    Every path I make, every road leads back
    To the place I know, where I can not go
    Where I long to be

    See the line where the sky meets the sea? it calls me
    And no one knows how far it goes
    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

    Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

    I know everybody on this island
    Seems so happy on this island
    Everything is by design
    I know everybody on this island
    Has a role on this island
    So maybe I can roll with mine

    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
    But 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?

    See the line where the sky meets the sea, it calls me
    And no one knows how far it goes
    If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
    One day I'll know how far I'll go Writer/s: Jaime Lopez, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Raul Aldana
