lyrics

Sit down with me awhile
And tell me the stories of the great unknown
My mouth is parched, I’m thirsty
Tell me the stories of the great unknown
We know our ways are dying
Tell us the stories of the great unknown
I see the Sun as rising
I feel the Moon it travels
The Earth she is revolving
But tell me the stories of the great unknown
My soul, tries to remember
Sit down with me awhile
