Tuning: Standard

Watch the stream run by you

Watch the Indian chief, wrapped in blue corn leaves drift by you

Watch it take root in the sun's pond

And rise at the fire

Oh, no more being matchwood

Only rising higher

I wanna see you be the one whose first light

Harbors in the new day

And see you settle into yourself

And never be afraid

Now I take everything as a good sign

Because I'm in love

I take everything as a sign

From God

And now I give myself to you alone

No more nights hang above me

Oh, ...

Please destroy me, please destroy me, please destroy me, please destroy me yeah

Dm C

Ohoohooohooo Ohohooo
