Never knew love like this
The wind, moon, the earth, the sky
Sky so high
Never knew pain like this
Everything die, then die
Never knew love like this
The sun, the sea and I
Never knew pain, never knew shame
Now I know why
Bury me, marry me to the sky
Marry, marry me to the sky
Feels like time is on my time
Bury me upside down
Cherokee, kissing me
When IÂ’m, IÂ’m going down
Feels like time is on my time
Bury me upside down
Cherokee, kissing me
When IÂ’m, IÂ’m going down
Never knew love like this
The wind, moon, the earth, the sky
Sky so high
Never knew pain like this
Everything die, then die
Never knew love like this
The sun, the sea and I
Never knew pain, never knew shame
Now I know why
Bury me, marry me to the sky
Marry, marry me to the sky
Feels like time is on my time
Bury me upside down
Cherokee, kissing me
When IÂ’m, IÂ’m going down
Feels like time is on my time
Bury me upside down
Cherokee, kissing me
When IÂ’m, IÂ’m going down
Feels like time is on my time
Bury me upside down, down
Cherokee, kissing me
When IÂ’m, IÂ’m going down.
