Hothouse Flowers Spirit Of The Land Lyrics

Spirit Of The Land Lyrics

Have you been touched

By the spirit of the land?

From a far away call

Into the palm of your hand



It's inside every woman

And it's inside every man

It's time to look and listen

To know and understand



The news is getting further

And the word is getting round

We will end another people

If we keep taking from the ground



You'll see it in the symbols

And the songs with ancient sounds

You'll find it all connected

If you take the time to look around

Look around



There's a gathering of races

And a gathering of soul

There'll be a choosing of directions

And a distribution of roles



Earth is Turtle Island

And air is Isle of Green

Water is in India

And fire is Aborigine
