Steve Young - We've Been Together on This Earth Before lyrics



We've been together on this earth before,
down in New Mexico.
We were red of skin, we were indians.
That was a long time ago.

We stood and gazed at the moon like this,
stood here loving stars.
We swam the rivers in the forest below,
before the coming of the cars.

Well, we had the rains, and we had the winds,
our lands they knew no end.
We were satisfied to live and to die
in the ways of the indians.

Ah, but gone are the ways that we used to know,
gone is the peace of old.
Now all is out upon a frantic road
in search of the vanishing gold.

We were born white men now,
we must do what we can,
even though they suffer the land.
Perhaps there is something we can do on this earth.
Come and I'll take your hand.

But dimmed are the stars that we used to know,
the rivers they run unclean.
The earth cries out but she is not heard,
except in the indian dream.

Ah, may the hills of your life not be too steep,
may the old ways not run too deep.
May the seasons of your youth be as graceful as then,
when we were brothers of the wind.

My son, my son, I'm glad you're born,
for we rode together as one.
We were free back then, we were men back then,
when we were the indians.
