Waking up this morning I could hear your thoughts
It was as if you reached out and touched me
I mean the kind of feeling where someone is with you
that they are so real you feel them with you

All I can do is say thank you for the kindness
In all the world there are so many places to go
but for a moment it stops for just a little while
and I can see you so clearly standing just over there

what is it I feel, is the longing of the heart
a thought lost in the recesses of the mind and then found
or is the sweet taste of your spirit, so gentle and kind
I have not seen this part of you before but it is there

In all that goes by throughout the day
I can feel it and when I am vanquished and gone
there will linger the sweet taste of life
oh, were it not so that we could touch just once

to know the sound of your voice
to look into your eyes and the smile of your face
but it really doesn't matter because in a moment
thoughts travel like lightning through stormy skys
and pierce the vail of my heart mind and soul
and so we touch eternity for a moment

we can go down the our own paths having known
that somewhere, some place
there are good hearts
color, creed, vanity and place vanish

so I take your kindness with me forever
let it be that we stood here
and the mountains, the sky and all the things
our dear Mother Earth has given us stand in awe
of this thing we call life and with love,
a glimpse that hopes, dreams and goodness go on
you have given me a taste of it

I have longed to see my fathers thoughts
the dreams of my grandfather and all he knew
that the songs of the drum might carry their song to me
but in searching for this I find that there are others waiting
to taste sweet water, and wait to dance to my song

in a quaking voice let me find the gentle words
that will make you dance and remember my grandchild
that one day your grandfather stood here on this high mesa
and sang a song of life that you might find the beautway

How does it go...ah yes it comes....

I go this way and that way
let me walk in beauty so that there is beauty before me,
that there is beauty behind me
that as I look up there is beauty above me
that there is beauty to the left of me
that there is beauty to the right of me
that all around there is beauty

come my child walk this way me
hey nay yun-gah, hey nay yun-gah
hey yuh, hey yuh, hey yuh
hey nay yunnnn-ggah-----------
