lyrics

IT’S A BLUE PLANET

There’s water on the sidewalk
And on the city streets
There’s water in the puddles
That I splash beneath my feet
There’s water in the air
When the day has just begun
Each drop of water on the grass
Reflects the morning sun
I like water that is flowin’
goin’ down a river run
I dive into the breaking waves
out in the ocean
I like it when I’m hikin’
Drink my water cool and slow
I like it when its hot and
Bubblin up from down below

Chorus:
Blue, blue, planet…From the mountains to the sea
Blue, blue planet…It’s the reason life can be
Blue, blue planet…Water up and water down
Blue, blue planet…Bringing life the whole world ‘round

There’s water on the mountain
Or flowin deep beneath the ground
I always think of where its been
Before I drink it down
Water is a gift
Bringing life to the land
Every drop’s a celebration
When your on the desert sand

And when you’re in the jungle
In a canopy of leaves
The constant water driping
Is the reason life can breath
And when you lying on the grass
You look into the sky
Water floats round the world
In clouds goiin by

[Chorus]

When the day is grey
The fog is floating on the wind
I breathe it out and in
And then I breathe it out again
Water is inside of me
This is how I know
I see the vapor in my breath
When I’m sliding in the snow
Water is inside of us
We’re in it when we start
The pool of water in our eyes
Are wellsprings of the heart
Water is a part of us
In what we do or say
Our joy of life and living
Lifts us up like bursting spray

[Chorus]
