How Far I'll Go
Cara Alessia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Long as I can remember, never really knowing why
I wish I could be the perfect daughter
But I come back to the water, no matter how hard I try
Every turn I take, every trail I track
Every path I make, every road leads back
To the place I know, where I can not go
See the line where the sky meets the sea? it calls me
And no one knows how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know
If I go, there's just no telling how far I'll go
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I know everybody on this island
Seems so happy on this island
Everything is by design
I know everybody on this island
Has a role on this island
So maybe I can roll with mine
I can lead with pride, I can make us strong
I'll be satisfied if I play along
But the voice inside sings a different song
What is wrong with me?
See the light as it shines on the sea, it's blinding
But no one knows how deep it goes
And it seems like it's calling out to me, so come find me
And let me know what's beyond that line
Will I cross that line?
See the line where the sky meets the sea, it calls me
And no one knows how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know how far I'll go
The song “How Far I’ll Go,” sung by Cara Alessia in the Disney film “Moana,” reflects the inner conflict of the singer, Moana, who is grappling with her sense of identity and longing to explore the world beyond her island. The opening lines, “I’ve been staring at the edge of the water / Long as I can remember, never really knowing why,” capture Moana’s sense of restlessness and curiosity, which she cannot explain or articulate. Moana feels a deep connection with the water, which symbolizes the uncharted territories of the world beyond her island, and no matter how hard she tries to conform to her community’s expectations, she keeps gravitating towards the water.
As Moana embarks on her journey to save her island, she realizes that every path she takes leads her back to the water, which she cannot resist. The chorus, “See the line where the sky meets the sea? it calls me / And no one knows how far it goes / If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me / One day I'll know / How far I'll go” represents Moana’s desire to explore the unknown, despite the risks and uncertainties. The song’s upbeat melody and catchy lyrics convey Moana’s optimism and courage to overcome obstacles and chase her dreams.
The bridge, “I can lead with pride, I can make us strong / I'll be satisfied if I play along / But the voice inside sings a different song / What is wrong with me?” reflects Moana’s inner conflict between fulfilling her responsibilities as a leader and her sense of adventure. She struggles to reconcile the two aspects of her identity, but ultimately decides to follow her heart and explore what lies beyond her island. The song’s message of perseverance and self-discovery resonates with audiences of all ages, encouraging them to pursue their passions and never give up on their dreams.

I've been staring at the edge of the water
I've been gazing at the meeting of land and water for a long while now
Long as I can remember, never really knowing why
It's been going on for so long, but I'm still not sure why
I wish I could be the perfect daughter
I desire to be the ideal child
But I come back to the water, no matter how hard I try
Despite my efforts, I always return to the water
Every turn I take, every trail I track
Every move I make, every path I follow
Every path I make, every road leads back
Every way I go, it brings me back
To the place I know, where I can not go
To the spot I am familiar with, which I cannot reach
Though I long to be
Even though I wish to go there
See the line where the sky meets the sea? it calls me
I spot the place where the horizon separates the sky and the water, and I feel drawn towards it
And no one knows how far it goes
Nobody has any idea how far it extends
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
If the breeze that propels my boat on the water continues to aid me
One day I'll know
One day I will discover
If I go, there's just no telling how far I'll go
If I embark on this journey, nobody can predict how distant I'll venture
I know everybody on this island
I am familiar with everyone on this land
Seems so happy on this island
They all appear to be content on this island
Everything is by design
Every aspect is premeditated
Has a role on this island
Everyone has a specific function on this land
So maybe I can roll with mine
Perhaps I can adjust to fit into my role
I can lead with pride, I can make us strong
I can confidently take charge, and build up our community
I'll be satisfied if I play along
I'll be content if I just conform
But the voice inside sings a different song
But my inner voice has a different tune
What is wrong with me?
I wonder what's amiss with me
See the light as it shines on the sea, it's blinding
Take a look at how the sunlight reflects on the water, it's almost too bright to see
And no one knows how deep it goes
No one knows how far down it extends
And it seems like it's calling out to me, so come find me
It appears that it's beckoning me to come discover it
And let me know what's beyond that line
And allow me to find out what lies beyond the horizon
Will I cross that line?
Am I going to cross that boundary
One day I'll know how far I'll go
Eventually, I'll understand how far I'll arrive

The truthful lyrics of the gaga song: born this way:
There is a problem about who we are, we live with sinful nature.
We all are called to REPENTANCE, to change our minds and our hearts.
We all are called back HOME, but PRIDE keeps us far.
So lets humble ourselves before GOD/CHRIST and lets answer to the calling.
We have sinned and felled short in the glory of GOD and without repenting we are at the wrong path.
How can we ask for love if there is none in us, we abuse ourselves and others daily.
How can we say we`re good if only do is sin, we telling lies, stealing lives, and destroying the light.
Yea we were born a sinner, lifelong sinful nature, but now we all are called to have new birth.
Don`t stay a sinner, become a new creature in Christ who promise to give you a warm heart.
Yea we were born sinners, but in Christ can we be brand new, without a sin of any kind.
Be you black or white, small or great, GOD through Christ calls all home.
Are we gonna answer or is our hearts grown cold? Our eyes and ears have we closed?
Are we all lost cases or is there still a chance that some of us shall be saved?
If we could change our lives, would we took the chance?
Or are we quick to say: “no, thanks, im good”?
