'The Shaman's Dance'
Your words enter my mind.
Cleanse my soul with peace;
mysterious wonderment.
I feel your essence.
Yet I can't explain the pain I feel
when you utter these words.
Your voice cuts through me like a knife.
Mysterious one.
The Shaman leads us to mystery.
Makes us feel our pain.
Calls upon the ancient Mother.
She dances with us tonite.
Takes us on a journey.
A psychedelic high.
My mind lingering.
Fading into the night.
Feeling free for the first time.
Seeing my body before me.
I hear a voice in the distance.
Dance upon the Earth tonight my child.
Be one with me tonite.
Fall upon the desert sand.
Feel the air upon you
as you dance with me tonite.
Dancing in an immaculate frenzy of
ecstasy and sorrow.
Free yourself tonight.
Let love enter your soul.
