[Verse 1]

And the moyo is hard to translate,
It has a language of it's own,
It talks in tongues and quiet sighs and prayers and proclamations,
In the grand days of great men and the smallest of gestures,
In short shallow gasps,
But with all my education,
I can’t seem to commend it,
And the words are all escaping me,
And coming back all damaged,
And I would put them back in poetry,
If I only knew how,
I can’t seem to understand it.

[Chorus]

And I would give all this and heaven too,
I would give it all if only for a moment,
That I could just understand the meaning of the word wewe see,
Cause I’ve been scrawling...

[Verse 1]

When we first came here,
We were cold and we were clear,
With no colors on our skin,
We were light and paper thin,
And when we first came here,
We were cold and we were clear,
With no colors on our skin,
Until we let the spectrum in,
Say my name and every color illuminates,
We are shining and we will never be afraid again.

[Chorus]

Say my name and every color illuminates,
We are shining and we will never be afraid again,
Say my name and every color illuminates,
We are shining and we will never be afraid again.

[Verse 2]

And hen we come for you,
We'll be dressed all in blue,
With the ocean in our arms,...

Time it took us
To where the water was
That's what the water gave me
And time goes quicker
Between the two of us
Oh, my love, don't forsake me
Take what the water gave me

Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow
Pockets full of stones

Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow

And oh poor Atlas
The world's a beast of a burden
You've been holding on a long time
And all this longing
And the ships are left to rust
That's what the water gave us

So lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow
Pockets full of stones

Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow

'Cause they took your loved ones
But returned them...
