Blue Sky, Red Stone [The Shaffer Brothers]
from Namaste (1997)in ancient times the great spirit stood upon the wall and gave the stone
it belonged to all and the ground was sacred
no weapons or war were allowed
it was jay and me on a warm autumn afternoon
and we both left knowing we'd be back one day soon
blue sky, red stone
so many things that were left unknown
we're such a long way from home
he didn't create us to be captives of our minds, of our thoughts
but to live in the beauty and love of the world around
he gave us sight to enjoy the things that we see
he gave us our lives so we could all learn to be free
i've got to get back to that scared place
i met God that day in those hills face to face
and he told me to tell you to learn to live in love
and he told me to tell you to learn to live in love
