Lyrics
-* I think thats what he sings, but I'm not sure, if you can help....
I come from the water,
I crawled upon the shore.
I left my brother there,
I got what I came for.
I sucked that water in*
and rolled upon the sand
It burned beneath the sun
to be a man.
I come from the water.
I come from the water.
That weren't no easy thing.
Its more than nature,
its like my destiny.
I stood upon these legs
and held my head up high.
It burned beneath the sun
to start a new life.
I come from the water.
Life in the desert
just to be together
the same forever
the same forever
It moves beneath me
It pulls me body
My pulse beats harder,
so far from the water.
I love to see the sun
in spite of all its done
I pray for saving rain*
I pray to live again
I come from the water.
Solo
I come from the water.

I found it hard to tell which was right in the song, so try either and see which one you
better. Personally, I think this variation actually sounds kind of cool. I'm not sure
one they actually do in the song though.
