lyrics

On the first day light
Come shining through the night so bright Miracles it’s such a beautiful sight
How far will we go, will we gooooooo (oooooooo)
Then heaven sent down water
(Heaven sent down water)
The current takes me Higher
(Higher)
On the first day light
(First day light)
How far will we go, will we gooooo Then heaven sent down water (Heaven sent down water)
The current takes me higher (Higher)
Then came into the surface
The earth had so much purpose
I wonder maybe if the eighth day comes around Wonder maybe, beginnings – come around
I wonder maybe if the eighth day comes around Wonder maybe, beginnings – come around
It’s a beautiful reaction
The sun, moon and stars in the atmosphere

A chemical attraction
The love that’s revealed is unconditional Ooooooo, eighth day, eighth day Oooooooooo
Everything was so beautiful
The way the flowers bloom in the spring-time I love the way the wind blows
The way the seasons change
Now the birds taking flight
Past the stars out of sight
But still right here where you are. (Right here where you are)
Wonders all through the land
World was built with great hands
Always pulling me where you are.
I wonder maybe if the eighth day comes around Wonder maybe, beginnings – come around
I wonder maybe if the eighth day comes around Wonder maybe, beginnings – come around
It’s a beautiful reaction
The sun, moon and stars in the atmosphere A chemical attraction
The love that’s revealed is unconditional

Everything made perfect
So good, so good
It was made just for me, just for meeeeeee
Eighth Day
Heeyyyy, on the eighth day Eighth Day
Heeyyyy, on the eighth day Eighth Day
Heeyyyy, on the eighth day Eighth Day
Heeyyyy, Heeey
Eighth Day
Eighth Day
Eighth Day, Eighth Day Eighth Day
Eighth Day
Eighth Day
I wonder maybe if the eighth day comes around Wonder maybe, beginnings – come around
I wonder maybe if the eighth day comes around Wonder maybe, beginnings – come around
It’s a beautiful reaction
The sun, moon and stars in the atmosphere A chemical attraction

The love that’s revealed is unconditional It’s a beautiful reaction
The sun, moon and stars in the atmosphere A chemical attraction
The love that’s revealed is unconditional Eighth Day
Heeyyyy, on the eighth day
Eighth Day
Heeyyyy, on the eighth day Eighth Day
Heeyyyy, Heeey
Eighth Day
Heeyyyy, on the eighth day Eighth Day
Heeyyyy, on the eighth day Eighth Day
Heeyyyy, Heeey
You can’t hold your love in illusion
You can’t hold yourself in confusion Simply look for love in the heavens above
You can’t hold your love in illusion
You can’t hold yourself in confusion Simply look for love in the heavens above
You can’t hold your love in illusion You can’t hold yourself in confusion

Simply look for love in the heavens above
Eighth Day
Heeyyyy, on the eighth day Eighth Day
Heeyyyy, Heeey
Eighth Day
Heeyyyy, on the eighth day Eighth Day
Heeyyyy, on the eighth day Eighth Day
Heeyyyy, Heeey
