The Day You Were 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.
The day you were born it must have been painted on the sand
That you would fall asleep upon my hand
And the day I first saw you in my heart I made a plan
To follow you to the sun
And I can hear it in the wind calling now
I've seen the faces in the clouds
Come on, come out, come with me, come through and share my plan
Run with me through the sand
Come on, come out, be open, be true and be the one
I'd follow you to the sun
And I can hear it in the wind calling now
I've seen the faces in the clouds
The day you were born it must have been painted on the sand
That you would fall asleep upon my hand
And the day I first saw you in my heart I made a plan
To follow you to the sun
To lead you to the water
And to dance with you in the rain
The rain
The rain
