When These Mountains Were The Seashore - Hawksley Workman[00:00:00]
When these mountains were the seashore[00:00:05]
When this desert was the ocean floor[00:00:10]
We would swim beneath the star filled sky[00:00:15]
We were lovely fish alone in the night[00:00:20]
Before the cities met the heavens[00:00:25]
I mean way way way back before then[00:00:31]
We would sing as if it were a prayer[00:00:36]
We were lovely fish who dreamed to dare[00:00:41]
Before clocks kept track of the time[00:00:49]
When day lead gracefully into the night[00:00:54]
Before two fish that dreamed to fly[00:00:59]
Created their sadness and new reasons to cry[00:01:06]
When these mountains were the seashore[00:01:17]
When this desert was the ocean floor[00:01:22]
You and i were not born yet[00:01:27]
It's too long ago now even to forget[00:01:32]
When the blue sky found it's courage[00:01:38]
To love and raise and nourish[00:01:43]
Back when life was simply meant to be[00:01:48]
Our love and care alone in the sea[00:01:53]
Before clocks kept track of the time[00:02:01]
When day lead gracefully into the night[00:02:06]
Before two fish that dreamed to fly[00:02:11]
Got suspicious of a miracle[00:02:17]
And asked themselves why[00:02:20]
When we looked up through the water[00:02:50]
At time and space and wondered[00:02:55]
What it might be like to live up there[00:03:00]
To leave our fins and gills for the air[00:03:05]
Before clocks kept track of the time[00:03:13]
Before the poems began to rhyme[00:03:18]
Before two simple fish that learned to cry[00:03:23]
Got suspicious of their love and asked each other why[00:03:32]
