CHORUS:
It's a cold moon, it's a cold moon
It's a cold moon that rides the sky tonight 
And the spirits of the folks I've known
And the places where I've been
I can feel them in the shadows,
I can hear them .. in the wind

1.
Long before the white man knew this prairie
The people who first called it home were livin' wild and free
They moved across the seasons by the changes of the moon
And just like them i've come to know how cold this night can be 

CHORUS

CODA:
Time slows down … the earth -- stands --- still

2.
Out here in this open-air cathedral
Everything I see looks like it's all made out of stone
And somewhere in the distance there's an old man in his lodge
His song's about creation and this place he called his home

CHORUS
