Lyrics for There Was the Sun

And I know I was born, I was born When I slipped out of my mother's womb And I know it was warm, it was warm 'Cause I slipped out on a hot afternoon Oh waouh oh And I know there was sun, there was sun When I felt it on my human skin And I know it was done, it was done When I saw the moon rising Ah ah ah
