Cherokee

Sweet eyes of my father

In my own eyes, I can see

Vision of the aged

Cherokee (Cherokee)

Sweet, sacred inspiration

That he passes on to me

Heartbeat of the gentle

Cherokee (Cherokee)

And I heard him say

That's just the way love is

When love is bliss

And we will walk a mighty circle

Double cross the hands of time

Laugh and we'll cry as egos die

Till we get to the other side

Put on our wings and fly

The soul of sweet forgiveness

Walks his path with dignity

With wisdom of the aged

Living Cherokee (Cherokee)

I come from his deep water

As much like him as I can be

And I carry to my own children

The promise of the Cherokee

And I heard him pray

That everywhere God is

Let freedom live

And we will walk that sacred circle

Double cross the hands of time

As nations die and hearts unite

Till we get to the other side

Put on our wings and fly

Song of Monolah

Sing of Mother Earth

Let every man be free

Let every voice be heard

Let every child be born

Knowing the way

And we will walk that sacred circle

Join our hands across all time

Living in peace and we believe

We're gonna get to the other side

We're gonna put on our wings and fly

When we get to the other side

Join our voices across the sky

When we get to the other side

(We cross over to the other side)

We're gonna wear all our Cherokee pride

(Wear our Cherokee pride)

When we get to the other side

(Get to the other side)

We're gonna leave this world behind

(Leave this world behind, yeah)

We're gonna get to the other side

We're gonna put on our wings and fly

(Fly away, yeah, yeah)

When we get to the other side

Join our voices across the sky

Till we get to the other side

We're gonna wear all our Cherokee pride

When we get to the other side

We're gonna leave this world behind

(Leave this world behind, yeah)

We're gonna get to the other side

We're gonna put on our wings and fly

(Fly away, yeah)

When we get to the other side

Join our voices across the sky

Till we get to the other side

We're gonna wear all our Cherokee pride
