Dolphin Lyrics

The song Dolphin is performed by Prince in the album named The Gold Experience in the year 1995 .

How beautiful do the words have to be
Before they conquer every heart?
How will you know if I'm even in the right key
If you make me stop before I start?

If I came back as a dolphin, would you listen to me then?
Would you let me be your friend? Would you let me in?
You can cut off all my fins but to your ways I will not bend
I'll die before I let you tell me how to swim

And I'll come back again as a dolphin

Why does my brother have to go hungry
When you told him there was food for all?
This is the man that stands next to the man
That stands to catch you when you fall, oh woah

If I came back as a dolphin, would you listen to me then?
Would you let me be your friend? Would you let me in?
You can cut off all my fins but to your ways I will not bend
I'll die before I let you tell me how to swim

And I'll come back again as a dolphin

If I'm under water, will you find me?
(Find me, find me, find me, find me)
Will you shine a light and try to guide me?
It's happened before, I've knocked on your door
But you wouldn't let me in

How beautiful do the words have to be
Before they conquer every heart? Oh

If I came back as a dolphin would you listen to me then?
Would you let me be your friend? Would you let me in?
You can cut off all my fins but to your ways I will not bend
I'll die before I let you tell me how to swim

Come back in the end as a dolphin
(Oh, I'll come back baby, let me in)
As a dolphin, dolphin
(Let me in, be my friend, yeah, yeah)

Dolphin, as a dolphin, as a dolphin
