Grandfather
Sunrise burns through the stars
Stars melt away but they won't disappear
Three crows walk with me on my way to work
Last night I flew with them in a dream
Took me to a blackness
To a timeless vastness
To a place where there was no man
Thousand sets of eyes intrigued by my appearance
Grandfather Crow sat with me in council
He said
Toksha atke wacin yanktin ktello
I shall see you again
Toksha atke wacin yanktin ktello
I shall see you again
I'll see you again
Grandfather Crow said I've been wanting to help you
Walk in the light and you will always be free
Freedom is a tricky word
Like that star at sunrise
It can melt away
But it won't disappear
Be as strong and as true as the mountains
Hold out your heart and be warmed by the sun
Though you walk this path alone
You will never be lonely
Though you will know many lovers
You may never know love
He said
Toksha atke wacin yanktin ktello
I shall see you again
Toksha atke wacin yanktin ktello
I shall see you again
I'll see you again
So I light my pipe for the women that have truly loved me
I light my pipe for friends that have flown away
I light my pipe for my friends back in Montreal
And now I say a prayer for the little ones yet to come
Now I say a prayer for the little ones yet to come
And I say
Toksha atke wacin yanktin ktello
I shall see you again
Toksha atke wacin yanktin ktello
I shall see you again
I'll see you again
Stars melt away but they won't disappear
Three crows walk with me on my way to work
Last night I flew with them in a dream
Took me to a blackness
To a timeless vastness
To a place where there was no man
Thousand sets of eyes intrigued by my appearance
Grandfather Crow sat with me in council
He said
Toksha atke wacin yanktin ktello
I shall see you again
Toksha atke wacin yanktin ktello
I shall see you again
I'll see you again
Grandfather Crow said I've been wanting to help you
Walk in the light and you will always be free
Freedom is a tricky word
Like that star at sunrise
It can melt away
But it won't disappear
Be as strong and as true as the mountains
Hold out your heart and be warmed by the sun
Though you walk this path alone
You will never be lonely
Though you will know many lovers
You may never know love
He said
Toksha atke wacin yanktin ktello
I shall see you again
Toksha atke wacin yanktin ktello
I shall see you again
I'll see you again
So I light my pipe for the women that have truly loved me
I light my pipe for friends that have flown away
I light my pipe for my friends back in Montreal
And now I say a prayer for the little ones yet to come
Now I say a prayer for the little ones yet to come
And I say
Toksha atke wacin yanktin ktello
I shall see you again
Toksha atke wacin yanktin ktello
I shall see you again
I'll see you again
