dave carter - when I go Lyrics

come lonly hunter chieftain and king I will fly like the falcon when I go
bear me my brother under your wing I will strike fell like lightenin' when I go
I will bellow like the thunder drum invoke the storm of war
a twistin' pillar spun in dust and blood up from the prairie floor
I will make the lay of long defeat and draw the chorus slow,
I'll send this message down the wire in hope that someone wise is listenin' when I go

Spring spirit dancer nimble and thin I will leap like coyote when I go
Tireless entrancer lend me your skin I will run like the grey wolf when I go
I will climb the rise at day break I will kiss the sky at noon raise my yearning voice at midnite to my mother in the moon
I will make the lay of long defeat and draw the chorus slow I'll send this message down the wire in hope that someone wise is listenin' when I go
and when the sun comes trumpets from his red house in the east he will find the standing stone where long I chanted my release
He will send his morning messengers to strike the hammer blow and I will crumble down uncountable in showers of crimson rubies When I go

Sigh mornful sister whisper and turn I will rattle like dry leaves when I go
Stand in the mist where my fire used to burn I will camp on the night breeze when I go
And should you glimpse my wandering form out on the borderline between death and
resurrection and the council of the pinesDo not worry for my comfort do not sorrow for me so
all your diamond tears will rise up and adorn the sky beside me when I go
