We Are One Lyrics & Chords By Gaby And The Thurstones

In the warm earth, Where the worm makes its home
It burrows and tunnels through soil and stone
And when a mishap arises and its body is divided
It laments "I was one, I was one!"

We watched on and imagined our own hours grown late
And turned to scripture to save us from the worm's fate
And we announced "our machinations will earn, for us, salvation"
Content with what we'll haven't done

We looked upon the robins and echoed their cries
We sought the same affinity they had for the skies
"We'll build our wonders in sevens as we try to near the heavens!
We'll work 'til our last verse is sung"

As those last notes escaped from our lips
The worm spent its dying breath singing, in harmony, this
"You all worry and fret so it makes you forget to live
To see, to care, to be, to share, to love!

And though our bodies aren't whole, our souls are entwined
Left together in vestiges: that's your place and mine
You mustn't endeavor to escape death forever
For wonder and beauty live on!"

From the blue eggs in the robin's nest
The hatchlings lay still in their sinlessness
And when that small flock of birds are cast into the world
They sing, "oh, we are one! we are one!"
They sing, "oh, we are one! we are one!"
