lyrics

The echo to your yell, the ripple to your dive
The current under your wave
Electricity is part of me
I send it out to you
We were charged with the pounding pulse of a million years
And millions before us have trembled with their fears

I never saw you, never heard you
But I knew that you were there
Everywhere
I could feel you all around me

Well I know that I am just a grain of sand
Meeting water at the land
We could make our castles here
And sweep them all away

I know that I am just a drop of water
Frozen into ice
On the stormy earth, that gave us birth
Over and over, in cycles, lovely cycles

I never saw you, never heard you
But I knew that you were there
Everywhere
I could feel you all around me
