Gaby And The Thurstones - We Are One lyrics

In the warm earth, Where the worm makes its home It burrows and tunnels through soil and stone And when a mishap arises and its body is divided It laments "I was one, I was one!" We watched on and imagined our own hours grown late And turned to scripture to save us from the worm's fate And we announced "our machinations will earn, for us, salvation" Content with what we'll haven't done We looked upon the robins and echoed their cries We sought the same affinity they had for the skies "We'll build our wonders in sevens as we try to near the heavens! We'll work 'til our last verse is sung" As those last notes escaped from our lips The worm spent its dying breath singing, in harmony, this "You all worry and fret so it makes you forget to live To see, to care, to be, to share, to love! And though our bodies aren't whole, our souls are entwined Left together in vestiges: that's your place and mine You mustn't endeavor to escape d**h forever For wonder and beauty live on!" From the blue eggs in the robin's nest The hatchlings lay still in their sinlessness And when that small flock of birds are cast into the world They sing, "oh, we are one! we are one!" They sing, "oh, we are one! we are one!"
