Naheo Lyrics by Cree Summer

Naheo Lyrics

    Sister can i tell you that i get so sad
    Like i'm grieving for something i've never had
    Sister when i'm broken, when you're holding me
    It's the child who's crying for the woman
    Father can i tell you that i know your fear
    'cause you gave it to me when you brought me here
    Father when you're hiding from the light that's inside
    Did you know that you're running from the dreamer

    Naheo don't lose your indian
    That's what he said

    Brother can i tell you that i've been the same
    When i heard all the yelling i played the game
    Brother when i leave you i will eat all your tears
    And i'll have you inside when i need you
    Mother can you see me, see me clear
    Too big to fly and too small to fear
    When you're shining you can walk on your hands
    Don't you cover your smile when you're laughing

    Naheo don't lose your indian
    That's what he said

    The child who sings the ancient song
    On sandia's back under the sun
    With mocassin feet in kokum's shawl
    Danking to the heart inside of us all

    Lover can i tell you that i get so scared
    Like you don't really see me behind your stare
    Lover when we are changing
    When we are turning inside
    Do we heal how we feel
    Or do we ride on

    Naheo don't lose your indian
