Testo Who I'd Be - Daniel Breaker feat. Brian D'Arcy James
Testo della canzone Who I'd Be (Daniel Breaker feat. Brian D'Arcy James), tratta dall'album Shrek The Musical (Original Cast Recording)
I guess I'd be a hero, with sword and armor clashing
Looking semi-dashing, a shield within my grip
Or else I'd be a Viking and live a life of daring
While smelling like a herring upon a Viking ship
I'd sail away, I'd see the world
I'd reach the farthest reaches
I'd feel the wind, I'd taste the salt and sea
And maybe storm some beaches
That's who I'd be, that's who I'd be
Or I could be a poet and write a different story
One that tells of glory and wipes away the lies
And to the skies I'd throw it, the stars would do the telling
The moon would help with spelling and night would dot the I's
I'd write a verse, recite a joke
With wit and perfect timing
I'd share my heart, confess the things I yearn
And do it all while rhyming
But we all learn, but we all learn
An ogre always hides
An ogre's fate is known
An ogre always stays
In the dark and all alone
So yes, I'd be a hero, and if my wish was granted
Life would be enchanted, or so the stories say
Of course I'd be a hero, and I would scale a tower
To save a hot-house flower, and carry her away
But standing guard would be a beast, I'd somehow overwhelm it
I'd get the girl, I'd take a breath, and I'd remove my helmet
We'd stand and stare, we'd speak of love
We'd feel the stars ascending, we'd share a kiss
I'd find my destiny, I'd have a hero's ending
A perfect happy ending, that's how it would be
A big, bright, beautiful world, but not for me
An ogre always hides
An ogre's fate is known
An ogre always stays in the dark
You're all alone, all alone (and I know)
So yes, I'd be a hero (he'll appear)
And if my wish were granted ('cause there are rules and there are strictures)
Life would be enchanted, or so the stories say
Of course I'd be a hero, and I would scale a tower (I believe the story books I read)
To save a hot-house flower and carry her away! (By candlelight)
A perfect happy ending
That's how it should be!
