Where the Spirits Lay

Lyrics

Where the mist clings to the Pinyon Pine Before the sun warms the ground Where the stream falls to the county line And your heart beat's the only sound A shadow lodge from long ago Sits high above the plains below Hasn't changed that much to say I'm standing on the sacred ground The proud and good are all around This is where the spirits lay So I've found what I've been looking for This is home, this is home And it's all I imagined and so much more This is home, this is home The stories so long told to me Take on a stark reality Like they'd happened yesterday I'm standing on the sacred ground The proud and good are all around This is where the spirits lay I am breathless as I reach the top And the whole world comes into view And that old mans voice makes me turn and stop This is you son, this is you It's suddenly so clear to me The afterlife holds mystery Where we all will be one day I'm standing on the sacred ground The proud and good are all around This is where the spirits lay
