Lyrics
When I grow up, I wanna be a shepherd
Expressing a desire for a future occupation as a shepherd
Walking for miles across the rivers
Describing a journey across rivers, possibly symbolizing life's challenges
Fighting with wolves with the fire I'd make
Imagining confronting difficulties, represented by fighting with wolves
Healing my sheep with my super powers
Envisioning the ability to heal, metaphorically with "super powers"
From the dawn to the setting sun
Describing a day from sunrise to sunset
Looking at the shape of clouds
Contemplating the shapes of clouds, possibly reflecting on nature
Making sure the world keeps spinning
Expressing a responsibility to ensure the world continues its rotation
Making sure that you're alright
Expressing concern for someone's well-being
When I grow up, I wanna be a shepherd
Reiteration of the desire to become a shepherd in the future
Walking for miles across the rivers
Repeating the idea of traversing challenges symbolized by rivers
Someday, I know, I may feel lonely
Acknowledging the potential for loneliness in the future
Mourning all day and when the planet dies
Reflecting on mourning and the potential decline of the planet
From the dawn to the setting sun
Reiterating the passage of time from dawn to sunset
Looking at the shape of clouds
Continuing to observe the shapes of clouds, emphasizing contemplation
Making sure the world keeps spinning
Stressing the responsibility to ensure the world's continuous motion
Making sure that you're alright
Reiterating concern for someone's well-being
Oh, making sure the world keeps spinning
Emphasizing the duty to keep the world spinning
Making sure that you're alright
Reiterating concern for someone's well-being
From the dawn to the setting sun
Repeating the cycle of observing from sunrise to sunset
Looking at the shape of clouds
Continuing the theme of contemplating cloud shapes
Making sure the world keeps spinning
Restating the duty to ensure the world's continuous motion
Making sure that you're alright
Reiterating concern for someone's well-being
Oh, you're alright
Affirming that the person is indeed alright
Ooh, you're alright
Further emphasizing the well-being of the person
Making sure that you're alright
Reiterating the commitment to ensuring the person's well-being
