Lyrics: MAN ON THE SAND
man on the sand
where do you come from
when the rain fell tonight
you came out of the clay
are you made of water
no, not of water
are you made of earth
no, not of earth
what would you like to be
free as a butterfly
man on the sand
who made you
when the rain fell tonight
you popped up in front of me
now that you’ve gone
I don’t see flowers
I don’t hear the birds sing
my heart is numb with cold
man on the sand
where do you come from
when the rain fell tonight
you came out of the clay
man on the sand
who made you
when the rain fell tonight
you popped up in front of me
