Lyrics

Chanting What My Grandpa Heard

Green stone blue sky atom field
Ocean dusk ship slide spin and steal
One day you?ll find what is real
Ocean dusk ship slide spinning wheel

Lightning bugs drink from a cup
Planets bathe in cosmic love
Circles rhymes songs and the word
Chanting what my grandpa heard

Green stone blue sky atom field
Ocean dusk ship slide spin and steal
One day you?ll find what is real
Ocean dusk ship slide spinning wheel

My man wants an Italian car
To take him to the nearest star
And carry him back into my arms
Chanting what my grandpa heard

Green stone blue sky atom field
Ocean dusk ship slide spin and steal
One day you?ll find what is real
Ocean dusk ship slide spinning wheel

One day you and me we?ll all be gone
Echoes of a singer who?s sung her song
Live forever in a single word
Chanting what my grandpa heard
