lyrics

In the canyon I never knew my mother like I knew you. And I never left the ground the way those ravens fall as if they flew. I’ll visit your well, and you will show but don’t tell. Oh, our feet go deeper, in the ground where mother keeps her, in the steps we take to reach her in the canyon. And take mother down, bless her hands with water plants; rain fall down, clear the way to higher ground.
