Man Walks Among Us |
Warm are the winds on the desert |
A whirlwind is dancing around |
I stopped to survey all the beauty, the tears |
When a shadow moves up, across the ground |
It’s an eagle |
And it circles above me |
And he screams to his friends on the hill |
«Stay close together |
Move not a feather |
Man walks among us |
Be still. |
Be still |
Man walks among us |
Be still.» |
Everything hides, but I see them |
I spotted an old mother quail |
I turn 'round and see |
Looking right back at me |
The eyes of a young cotton tail |
Somewhere a coyote sneaking |
As he roams through the brush on the hill |
And the eagle screams down |
«Stay close to the ground |
Man walks among us |
Be still. |
Be still |
Man walks among us |
Be still.» |
Soon, will be gone all the desert |
Cities will cover each hill |
Today will just be |
A sad memory |
Man walks among us |
Be still |
Be still |
Man walks among us |
Be still |
