Child Of The Universe

by Seize The Day

on It's Your Life...It's Our World (1998), Alive (2004)

Here's a little history, of a bigger mystery
I have written this story into my song
If it isn't what you're used to
I hope it will amuse you
And maybe if you choose to
then you all sing along

It goes..
I am as old as the universe
I've been here before and I'll be here again
I am a child of the universe
A part of all women, and a part of all men

Once upon a sometime, and once upon a somewhere
And once upon a somehow, there was a BIG BANG!
Energy revolving, and energy dissolving,
and energy evolving, and that's what I am!

I am as old as the universe
I've been here before and I'll be here again
I am a child of the universe
A part of all women, and a part of all men

I am a little flower, that blossoms for an hour,
but in me there's a power that growsi on and on.
Power in the roots of me, power in the shoots of me,
power in the fruit that will pass my seed on.

I am as old as the universe
I've been here before and I'll be here again
I am a child of the universe
A part of all women, and a part of all men

lai lalalalai lala...

I am as old as the universe
I've been here before and I'll be here again
I am a child of the universe
A part of all women, and a part of all men

I am not a somebody, I am not a nobody,
I am a celled one body filling all space.
All I ever could be, and all I ever should be,
and all I ever will be is here in this place.

I am as old as the universe
I've been here before and I'll be here again
I am a child of the universe
A part of all women, and a part of all men

I am as old as the universe
I've been here before and I'll be here again
I am a child of the universe
A part of all women, and a part of all men

I am as old as the universe
I've been here before and I'll be here again
