| [00:07.16] |
You think I'm just an ignorant savage |
| [00:09.72] |
And you've been so many places I guess it must be so |
| [00:14.39] |
But still I can not see |
| [00:17.18] |
If the savage one is me |
| [00:20.38] |
How can there be so much that you don't know? |
| [00:26.38] |
You don't know |
| [00:35.49] |
|
| [00:40.31] |
You think you own whatever land you land on |
| [00:44.92] |
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim |
| [00:49.16] |
But I know every rock and tree and creature |
| [00:53.69] |
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name |
| [00:58.44] |
You think the only people who are people |
| [01:03.06] |
Are the people who look and think like you |
| [01:07.35] |
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger |
| [01:11.49] |
You'll learn things you never knew, you never knew |
| [01:16.28] |
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon? |
| [01:21.10] |
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned? |
| [01:25.22] |
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains? |
| [01:30.03] |
Can you paint with all the colours of the wind? |
| [01:35.16] |
Can you paint with all the colours of the wind? |
| [01:42.71] |
|
| [01:49.52] |
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest |
| [01:53.39] |
Come taste the sun sweet berries of the earth |
| [01:57.37] |
Come roll in all the riches all around you |
| [02:01.58] |
And for once, never wonder what they're worth |
| [02:05.89] |
The rainstorm and the river are my brothers |
| [02:10.21] |
The heron and the otter are my friends |
| [02:14.75] |
And we are all connected to each other |
| [02:19.00] |
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends |
| [02:23.98] |
How high does a sycamore grow? |
| [02:28.49] |
If you cut it down, then you'll never know |
| [02:34.31] |
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon |
| [02:40.31] |
For whether we are white or copper-skinned, |
| [02:44.63] |
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountain |
| [02:49.44] |
Need to paint with all the colours of the wind |
| [02:54.71] |
You can own the earth and still, |
| [02:57.58] |
All you'll own is earth |
| [02:59.77] |
Until you can paint with all the colours of the wind |
