Pocahontas OST
Lyrics for Song: Colors of the Wind - Vanessa Williams
Lyrics for Album: Pocahontas OST
You think you own whatever land you land on
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know every rock & tree & creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name...
You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look & think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew
you never knew...
(Refrain)
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to
the blue corn moon
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
Come taste the sunsweet berries of the earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once never wonder what they're worth.
Come rainstorm & the rivers are my brothers
The heron & the otter are my friends
And we are all connected to each other
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends.
(Repeat Refrain)
How high does the sycamore grow?
If you cut it down
Then you'll never know....
And you never heard the wolf cry
to the blue corn moon
For whether we are white or
copper-skinned
We need to sing with all the voices
of the mountain,
We need to paint with all the colors
of the wind
You can own the earth
& still all you own is earth
Until you can paint with all the
colors of the wind.
