Colours Of The Wind Lyrics

Colours Of The Wind - Various Artists

...

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 will learn things you never knew, you never knew.

have ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon

or asked the grinning Bob cat why he grinned

can you sing with all the voices of the mountain

can you paint with all the colours of the wind

can you painting with all the colours of the wind

come run the hidden pine trails of the forests

come taste the sun sweet berries of the earth

come roll in all riches all round 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're 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 asked the grinning Bob cat why he grinned

can you see with all the voices of the mountain

can you paint with all the colours of the wind

can you paint with all the colours of the wind

how high can a sycamore grow

if you cut it down then you will never

know

and you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon

or whether we are white or copper skinned

you need to sing with all the voices of the mountain

you need to paint with all the colours of the wind

you can own the earth and still,

all you own is earth until

you can paint with all the colours of the

wind.
