| Spirit of the river, I can hear you
|
| I feel as if I’m deep inside your soul
|
| I see you laughing, intoxicated dancing
|
| Will you carry me with you when I’m gone?
|
| Spirit of the forest, I’ll be with you
|
| I’ve traveled far to be among your kind
|
| Now you’re teaching me to live among your people
|
| I’m so far from the world I left behind
|
| Ashes to ashes
|
| Sermons in stone, oh how time passes
|
| We’re here and then we’re gone
|
| And all that remains
|
| When we’re free of our chains
|
| Is the love we shared
|
| The love we shared
|
| Mother earth, what can I give back to you?
|
| As you carry me, carry me to my rest
|
| Even as I bow to the turning of your seasons
|
| As I lay my head upon your breast
|
| Ashes to ashes
|
| Sermons in stone, oh how time passes
|
| Ashes to ashes
|
| We’re here and then we’re gone
|
| And all that remains
|
| When we’re free of our chains
|
| Is the love we shared
|
| The love we shared
|
| You’re a free spirit now
|
| You’re a free spirit |
