WHEN YOU WERE BORN by Bobbi Soares When you were born, an angel looked your way. Always there to guide you throughout the day.
Now you were born, you’ll die someday. No one gets out alive, my teacher used to say.
Bringing new beginnings, coming home to the light. Knowing life’s a journey, It makes it alright.
Now you were born, you gotta live someday. Up to your potential, You always find the way.
And when you die, you sprout wings and fly, with a spirit Sherpa into a brand new sky.
Wash your spirit clean, Wash your spirit clean.
When you were born, you had stuff to say. Get down on your knees babe, you don’t have to pay!
Wash your spirit clean, Wash your spirit clean.
Now you were born, you’ll die someday when I told my partner, he said that’ll be the day.

Wash your spirit clean, Wash your spirit clean.
Spirit of the wind, the mountains, the land, Mother of the waters gonna take your hand.
If I should die, before you’re awake, have a happy life babe, there’s nothing more at stake.
