Los Lobos - Song Of The Sun lyrics

In the beginning there was the sun And it did shine on me Showed me the way down the road Along the twists and turns Through the alleys and through streets When I couldn't feel the dirt beneath my feet Then there came the wind And it did blow dust on me Made it hard for my eyes to clearly see Couldn't wash them with my tears Couldn't see in front of me Couldn't feel my way through the dark When fire came to be And it felt so hot on me Then burned the flesh of men from their bones And left their souls to wander To stagger in a daze Along the bent and broken of the earth Water was last to come And it did rain on me It cooled my broke and bitter heart It poured down from my face It ran down to my legs And soothed me deep into my soul
