Lyrics Terry Jacks – Concrete Sea

I heard some music being played today
I heard a song but the words were wrong
It didn’t matter to me anyway
Some people really don’t care what they say

I started looking to the sky today
‘Cause it’s so big and it’s so far away
I’ve got too many things inside my head
I wish that I could be up there instead

No one is meant to be
Living here in a concrete sea
Everyone, including me
Wishes he could be set free

And then I looked into the ocean blue
‘Cause it’s so deep and it’s so quiet too
There’s just too many people everywhere
I wish that I was down there

No one is meant to be
Living here in a concrete sea
Everyone, including me
Wishes he could be set free

I heard a story being told today
About a man and just how he got away
You got to leave the things you grow up for
Turn your head and start to swim for shore

No one is meant to be
Living here in a concrete sea
Everyone, including me
Wishes he could be set free

No one is meant to be
Living here in a concrete sea
