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 |
