[Verse 1]
A few who truly knew me used to joke
That you'd only see me smiling when I smoke
Damage from a darker yesterday
That something in the water washed away

[Verse 2]
I can't believe the feeling that I found
Inside of me when winter comes around
She always looked so happy and so high
I want to be a dolphin when I die

[Chorus]
I would love to be a dolphin every day
And watch the water wash the world away
Swimming free and smiling at the sky
I want to be a dolphin when I die

[Verse 3]
I'm sorry that she can't be swimming free
But I'm happy that she's happy here with me
The truth is shining in her eyes
Want to be a dolphin when I die

[Chorus]
I want to be a dolphin every day
And watch the water wash the world away
Swimming free and smiling at the sky
I want to be a dolphin when I die
[Outro]
