Lyrics

Earth

[Verse 1]

Let me be the rain

You thirst for

Let me be the sun

That you adore

And let my sweet, sweet ocean

Caress your shore

Let your heart

Search no more

[Chorus]

You're my earth

Mmm

Paradise

I say you're my earth

(My earth, my my)

You're my earth

(You're my earth)

Sweet paradise

I say you're my earth

(Oh, oh, ah)

[Verse 2]

There's no place i'd rather be

Your beauty is surrounding me

From your tears black orchids bloom

(Orchids bloom)

My soul is fed by you

(Fed by you)

And water then birth, then death

It's back to dirt

Home, to you

[Chorus]

You're my earth

In paradise

I say you're my earth

(My earth, my my)

You're my earth

(You're my earth)

Sweet, sweet paradise

I say you're my earth

(Oh, oh, ah)

Sweet, sweet

Mmm

Sweet, sweet paradise

I searched for you all over the world

Yes, search

Searched for you

All my life

I've searched

Searched for you

Searched for you all my life

Life

Mmm

Yeah

Oh i

Mmm

I've searched

Searched for you

Searched for you all my life

I've searched

Searched for you

Searched for you all my life

Oh i

Listen to my heart speak

Bathe in the warmth of the morning sun

Morning sun, morning sun

I wait for you

I wait for you

Hmm

Bathe in the warmth of the morning sun

Morning sun, morning sun

My earth

Bathe in the warmth of the morning sun

I wait for you, i wait for you

Bathe in the warmth of the morning sun

I wait for you, i wait for you

Bathe in the warmth of the morning sun

I wait for you, i wait for you
