I'LL BE WHAT I WANTED TO BE, by                    
First Line: Sometime I'll come to you again
Last Line: For I'll be what I wanted to be.
Subject(s): Self


Sometime I'll come to you again --
I may come in the waves of the sea --
You may not know me when I come,
But I'll be what I wanted to be.

I may come to you again and again --
From the mountain -- from the whispering tree --
But you'll learn me sometime when I come,
And what I wanted to be.

And where I have failed on my pathway here,
When my seeing eyes could not see,
Believe me, I'll help you always then;
For I'll be what I wanted to be.
