Lyrics

Phantom warriors
surround me
they've got the weapons, knives
and they're gonna
they're gonna hurt me
they want to put me in my grave
Yes, I must be brave

I wish I was a warrior
I wish I could fight
I wish I could overthrow
the terror of the night
I wish I was your lover
I wish I could be
wish I could discover what you're looking for in me

If I was a sailor
I could sail across the sea
to find a new world where
a new world ought to be
to find a land of treasure
to find a place of peace
If I was your lover
I could find my true release

I wish I was a poet
I wish I could paint
I wish I was a hero
I wish I was a saint
I wish I was your lover
I wish I could be
wish I could discover what you're looking for in me

Phantom warriors
surround me
they've got the weapons, knives
and they're gonna
they're gonna hurt me
they want to put me in my grave
Yes, I must be brave

I wish I was a warrior
I wish I could fight
I wish I could break away
and burst into the light
I wish I was your lover
I wish I could be
wish I could discover
me
