Colors of the Wind

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

[02:14.89]Have you ever heard the wolf cry

To the biue corn moon

Or asked the grinning bobcat

Why he grinned

Can you sing with all the voices to the mountain

[01:16.70][02:29.57][02:34.57]Can you paint with all the colors of the wind

[01:25.35][01:27.75][01:32.75][02:42.70][02:44.00][02:46.47][02:51.29]Can you paint with all the colors

[02:48.67]Of the wind

come run the hidden pine trails of the forest

come taste the sun sweet 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 of a hoop that never ends

[03:17.37]To the blue corn moon

Or let the eagle tell you

where he's been

Can you sing with all the voices to the mountain

How high does the sycamore grow

If you cut it down

Then you'll never know

Never know

[03:08.60]Never know

And you'll never hear the wolf cry

For whether we are white or copper skinned

We need to sing with all the voices of the mountian

[03:33.70]Need to paint with all the colors of the wind

[03:43.29]Need to paint with all the colors

You can own the earth and still

can we own the earth and still

The paint with all the colors

Of the wind
