Chapman, Tracy - The First Person On Earth Lyrics
From the water
From the rock and the dirt
You were
The first person on earth
And the oceans
Witnessed your birth
The first person on earth
By a river
On the banks of a sandy shore
Untouched clean fresh and pure
The first person on earth
In the light of the sun
To see the good in the world
Before the pain and the scourge
The first person on earth
In the quiet in the calm
Before the storm
You heard the dream for a love
That never dies in a poem
The first person on earth
And I'm in love with you
I'm in love with a dream
That can not be realized
Held or seen
By the last person on earth
After the earthquakes the hurricanes
The fires and floods
I'm jaded cynical angry and glum
The world's too absurd and obscene
For true love
And more than happy to let me become
The last person on earth
To let me stand on a rock
The muddy waters surround
Abandoned alone
The end soon to come
As the last person on earth
As the waters rise
At the end of the world
Though I bear the weight
Of the rock and the dirt
I know I'm worthy of your love
As the last person on earth
As the waters rise
At the end of the world
Though I bear the weight
Of the rock and the dirt
I know I'm worthy of your love
As the last person on earth

Tracy you are truly blessed with a vision and prophecy
1:44 there's a Lake , which is in Bulgaria in Rila mountain. One of the seven Rila glacier lakes. :)
a great song tarnished by time and forgetfulness...
The second person on Earth is my shadow in colors...
"The First Person On Earth"
From the water
From the rock and the dirt
You were
The first person on earth
Oh the mountains
And the oceans
Witnessed your birth
The first person on earth
By a river
On the banks of a sandy shore
Untouched clean fresh and pure
The first person on earth
In the light of the sun
You emerged
To see the good in the world
Before the pain and the scourge
The first person on earth
In the quiet in the calm
Before the storm
You heard the dream for a love
That never dies in a poem
The first person on earth
And I'm in love with you
I'm in love with a dream
That can not be realized
Held or seen
By the last person on earth
After the earthquakes the hurricanes
The fires and floods
I'm jaded cynical angry and glum
The world's too absurd and obscene
For true love
And more than happy to let me become
The last person on earth
To let me stand on a rock
The muddy waters surround
Abandoned alone
The end soon to come
As the last person on earth
As the waters rise
At the end of the world
Though I bear the weight
Of the rock and the dirt
I know I'm worthy of your love
As the last person on earth
As the waters rise
At the end of the world
Though I bear the weight
Of the rock and the dirt
I know I'm worthy of your love
As the last person on earth
''I know I'm worthy of your love''
The most important lyrics of this song, an affirmation to the Divine that although the human realm is hard only love is real & is eternal. Blessings.

I just love love you
+Samrawit Hadgu WELL IT IS ONE OF THE FREEDOMS WE STILL HAVE. SO WHY NOT? BE FREE & BE YOU. ;-)
i thought about using the last verse as a tattoo.. any thoughts anyone..?
me and the lady below got this in common
I love you Tracy!
I never heard this song before, but I love TC and think this is one of her best. So sad and sweet. Most people don't want to have to think or feel maybe that's why this one isn't a chart topper. Sounds a bit Neil Young influenced to me, I know they are neighbors after all.
Aliens it was Tracy Chapman all along .
Wasn't me i was born before that first person
I agree...and I think people dont like sad truth...only some of them can really hear :)
Agreed - definitely one of her more underrated songs. This is also one of my favorites from the album, one of my alltime favorite albums, period.
i think we cousins lmao
