Visit me in sleep, many years old

Come dance with me my darling in the fields of Everglade
with the crocs of the Seminole sing in we in the shade
Winter is a calling from the valley deep
spring she is looking for a spring to weep


Ropes of vines a dropping like the webs of old
Hear the banshee calling for every lost soul
Take the heart of loving and replace it with one
of pure fools gold

Craft of the dark side finds its self a place in the dream
Wealthy left in the satin and lace high on the hill
leather is calling from Indian high on rocky mountain swill
Hear the world calling saying its goodbye cry old Indian cry

Mounting of the water stink of the green
Last of the love of land never seen
here is where the last Indian screams
trap man in the center of the begging dead

Pyre leased in flames of burning said
She is the spirit of all that has been done
We are the after glow of the earth and sun
more in the water set to sea born dead

Come dance with my darling in the fields of Everglade
with the crocs of the Seminole sing in the shade
supper is a waiting on the hill last of truth will kill
hearts in the water of life that lived to spell.
Sweet mother earth will never tell
