you and I were there
when the sky was born and bled on us
and though you didn't care
you sure know what it meant
and you and I were there
when the swamps, they cooled and drew us in
and though you didn't care
you sure know what it meant
and, yeah, you laughed
and, yeah, you cried
and all the rocks, they formed
and then you fell
yeah, you were so high
and all the banks were drowned
and then the evening took us in
and drank out blood away
and then we fell into the sky
and the sun it fell away
it fell away
you and I were there
when the egg, it hatched and showed us life
and though she didn't care
yeah, she sure knows what it meant
and you and I were there
when the clouds, they sank to tuck us in
and though we didn't care
yeah, we sure live what we dreamt
