0:13You think you own whatever land you land on
0:19The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
0:26But i know every rock and tree and creature
0:32Has a life has a spirit has a name
0:38You think the only people who are people
0:45Are the people who look and think like you
0:52But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
0:58You'll learn things you never knew you never knew
1:04Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
1:11Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned
1:17Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain
1:24Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
1:30Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
1:37Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
1:43Come taste the sun sweet berries of the earth
1:50Come roll in all the riches all around you
1:56And for once never wonder what they're worth
2:03The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
2:09The heron and the other are my friends
2:16And we are all connected to each other
2:22In a circle in a hoop that never ends
2:28Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
2:35Or let the eagle tell you where he's been
2:41Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain
2:48Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
2:54Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
3:02How high does the sycamore grow
3:07If you cut it down then you'll never know
3:17And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
3:24For whether we are white or copper skinned
3:30We need to sing with all the voices of the mountain
3:36Need to paint with all the colors of the wind
3:43You can own the earth and still
3:46All you'll own is earth until
3:53You can paint with all the colors of the wind
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'll learn things you never knew you never knew Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain Can you paint with all the colors of the wind Can you paint with all the colors 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 other are my friends And we are 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 let the eagle tell you where he's been Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain Can you paint with all the colors of the wind Can you paint with all the colors of the wind How high does the sycamore grow If you cut it down then you'll never know And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon For whether we are white or copper skinned We need to sing with all the voices of the mountain Need to paint with all the colors of the wind You can own the earth and still All you'll own is earth until You can paint with all the colors of the wind
