I'm standing out here amongst powerful trees Oh what a joy to have friends like these Breathing in the rythym of life & death Knowin' that I haven't got a lot of time left I listen to the earth beat, I listen to the e a rth beat.

I listen to the e a rth beat I hear it sayin' w o a... I hear it sayin' w o a... I hear it sayin' w o a...
