lyrics

(Copyright Todd Lewis, The Toadies)

I come from the water. I walked up on the shore.
I found my brother there. I got what I came for.
I sucked that water down and rolled up on the sand.
It burns beneath the sun, to be a man.

I come from the water. I come from the water.
I come from the water. I come from the water.

I come from the water. It weren't no easy thing.
It's more than nature. It's like my destiny.
I stood up on these legs and held my head up high.
It burns beneath the sun. I wish I'd never tried.

I come from the water. I come from the water.
I come from the water. I come from the water.

I love to see the sun, in spite of all it's done.
My pulse beats harder, so far from the water.

I come from the water. I come from the water.
I come from the water. I come from the water.

I saw Kate Wakefield's videos on youtube and instantly fell in love with her music. As someone who is trying to learn how to play the cello, it is very inspiring for me to see an artist like Kate, who not only master the cello, but also looping and singing. Finding Kate's music has given me even more motivation and inspiration to continue learning and growing. So thank you for that and for the amazing music you share with us. Karoline Hundrup
