Shamans Farewell by Ralph Metzner Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When I was still young
Upon the green Earth
Searching for beauty
Fleeing from terror

Stories of sadness
Memories of madness

I'm waulking and weaving
A rainbow fabric
Seeking and speaking
The threads of the story

Climbing and struggling
Into the mountains

[Chorus]
Into the world
Into the world of humans
Into the world
Into the world of birth and life
Into the world
Into the world of humans
Into the world
Into the world of birth and life

[Verse 2]
And now that I’m long
Upon the green Earth
Praising the beauty
Facing the terror

Stories of sadness
Memories of madness

I'm tracking and talking
The patterns of stories
Shifting and changing
A magical carpet

Soaring and flying
Over the mountains

[Chorus]
Into the world
Into the world of spirits
Into the world
Into the world of mystery
Into the world
Into the world of spirits
Into the world
Into the world of mystery
