Lyrics
I Am Born
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
All the people in all the world
Will look for something that will keep it turning
Everyone's got to keep the will
Every boy every girl
I'm no different why the other day
I saw death like an ocean that could wash us away
The only comfort that I got was this
I once was unlovely and now I'm kissed
I am born
Aliver than the raging sea
Stranger than the strangest beasts
Than ever can be
After midnight and the night is black
You lie awake and the fear comes back
That your breath will stop
And this world will carry on
But I am born
Once there was nothing here
Not even the smell of fear
Nothing at all
Until you are born
Gasping out and in to open air
Taking hold of the atmosphere
And loving being born
