The Wide Open World


Here it is another day
Trying hard just to carry on
"Bring me my breakfast and sweep up the floor"
That's all I hear night and noon

Sometimes I want to run away
But this where I'm going to be
So I do, I keep wondering
If there's something lebih for me

Down the meadow, past the ravine
Does to rumput grow, greener than green?
Are there places I've never dreamed of
Out in the wide open world?

Somewhere there's a miller's son
Just as handsome as anything
White ribboned ladies parade in the square
Longing to cling to his arm

Look at me, just a peasant girl
Destined to cling to her plough
So I do, I keep feeling
He's waiting for me now

Down the road there, just round the bend
Is there somewhere I'll find a friend?
Are there people loving each other
Out in the wide open world?

White merpati in the silver sky
I've got apples and berries to give you
Wherever it is anda fly
I'd be so overjoyed if anda take me with you

Out where freedom awaits
Far beyond these fences and gates
No lebih sorrow, only tomorrow
Out in the wide open world

Would I discover the me that's inside
Out in the wide open world?
