I saw how we were stars
that landed in the sea
When we took the first steps
away from the ocean
It hit me that time
As we waded forth towards the water
I lay down on the ground
and thanked the heaven
that we got to step on land
that we got to feel the sand
now we can say
that we have been on earth
yes, I was there
how wonderful it was
how wonderful it wasn't
I was close, I was close,
I was close, I was there
a moment on earth
a moment on earth
I was close, I was close,
I was close, I was there
a moment on earth, a moment on earth
I won the mountains
I parted the sea
I was the strongest of us
but still the weakest
I got to hold your hand
when you got to abandon your dreams
and to reconcile later in time
I got to see you thank life
despite everything
now we can say
that we have been on earth
to say, I was there
