Lyrics
When The Sun Is Down
© January 27, 2007 Stan Loh
Verse 1
Someone stole the precious sun,
Now the moon cries every night,
Prayer dance, beating on the drums,
Yielded no comfort light.
Verse 2
Raven, iridescent one,
They think the thief you know,
Call on coyotes on the run,
Tell them where to go.
Chorus
When the sun is down,
Sadness all around,
Casts a silence in the Sound.
Bridge
Raven, oh Raven please bring back the sun,
The Elders wore tired eyes,
Raven considered the darkened skies,
And said it shall be done!
Chorus
For when the sun is down,
Sadness all around,
Casts a silence in the Sound.
Verse 3
The tribal fire about to die,
Northeast winds are cold,
Broken spirits can’t provide,
A hope for all to hold.
Chorus
For when the sun is down,
Sadness all around,
Casts a silence in the Sound.
Interlude
Chorus 1
One day a call is heard,
The cry of Blackbird,
The sun will be coming, this he reassured.
Chorus 2
Now when the sun shines through,
The tribal point of view,
Raven’s their hero, from hitherto.
Outro
So through the sunlit years,
Raven shapes appear,
In every woodwork he’s so revered.
