I see the world through it
It helps me interpret it
It lives inside of me, guides me
Shows me what is right and wrong
Leads me to the chosen path
It handles tasks I am incapable of
Digests my food
Regulates my temperature
Circulates my blood
It takes care of me
It knows all that I have ever done
Everything that I have ever seen
Heard, smelled or spoken
Every good deed and bad
Every mistake and achievement
Every joy and every pain
It remains by my side
Without it I am nothing
With it I come into existence

Really, I would do anything for you
You know I would really do
Because I can’t think straight
Baby, did you ever hear a doubt
When I am about
Let me put it straight
Baby I would never leave
Bring you joy you best believe
I would never say goodbye
I would never hide or lie
I think you’re the same as me
I think we are meant to be
You and I are gonna be together
Really, I would do anything for you
You know I would really do
Because I can’t think straight
Baby, did you ever hear a doubt
When I am about
Let me put it straight
Look at me and you will see
All the love I hold for thee
You know our love would never die
Spread your wings and start to fly
If you’d only just believe
Everything we can achieve
You and I are gonna be together
Gonna be together
Gonna be together
We’re gonna be together
We’re gonna be together
We’re gonna be together
We’re gonna be together
Before The Rains Came
Before the rains came, we prayed
All day long, afraid
If we’d done wrong, we played
Chants and holy songs, we made
Your home where we belong, prepared
Special food and water, we paid
Handsomely at the altar, we stayed
With our sons and daughters, obeyed
Every law and order, we prayed
Till the rains came
