Lyrics

luck + intent = a star-person moving in
 
light = the unanswered thoughts of great mysteries
 
mama = your first ocean
 
you’re used to quiet words
and so am i
so i’ll just whisper:
 
you’re a treaty, a dish & a spoon
you’re a prairie, a big river, and the mouths of many rivers
you’re a longhouse, a tiipi and a wiigwamin
you’re corn, beans, squash and minomiin
 
you’re a buffalo and a bear amongst turtles
 
without conditions = that time we all prayed for your heartbeat
 
home = the place where the healer lives
 
9 months = the shift from spirit into solid form
 
you’re used to quiet words
and so am i
so i’ll just whisper:
 
i’ll stand at the foot of your lake
i’ll wait in the grass while you take it too far
i’ll give you the keys to all the canoes
i’ll sing to you, until you sing back
 
i’ll sing to you, until you sing back.
