Colours of the Wind
You think you own whatever land you land on
- You think you own whatever land you land on
- The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
- But I know every rock and tree and creature
- Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
- You think the only people who are people
- Are the people who look and think like you
- But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
- You'll learn things you never knew, you never knew
- Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon?
- Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?
- Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains?
- Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
- Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
- Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
- Come taste the sunsweet berries of the earth
- Come roll in all the riches all around you
- And for once never wonder what they're worth
- The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
- The heron and the otter are my friends
- And we are all connected to each other
- In a circle, in a hoop that never ends
- Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon?
- Or let the eagle tell you where he's been?
- Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
- Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
- Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
- How high does the sycamore grow?
- If you cut it down, then you'll never know
- And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
- For whether we are white or copper skinned
- We need to sing with all the voices of the mountains
- We need to paint with all the colors of the wind
- You can own the earth and still
- All you'll own is earth until
- You can paint with all the colors of the wind

Wow..wow
so much love for your songs
Wow! What a voice. Hope we can duet
I love it so much! Powerful voice
Can't wait to listen to more of your covers
It's supposed to be an unwinding song yet now merely a regretful memory
