Warm are the winds on the desert
A whirlwind is dancing around
I stopped to survey all the beauty that's here
When a shadow moves out across the ground
It's an eagle that circles above me
And he screams to his friends on the hill
Stay close together move not a feather
Man walks among us be still be still
Man walks among us be still
Everything hides but I see them
I've spotted an old mother quail
I look close and see looking right back at me
The eyes of a young cottontail
I see a coyote sneaking as he crawls
Through the brush on the hill
And the eagle screams down stay close to the ground
Man walks among us be still be still
Man walks among us be still
Twenty feet high in the side of a Cactus
I see a hole where the Butcher bird stays
If mortals could choose and if Heaven should ask us
Here's where I'd want to spend all of my days
Soon will be gone all the desert
Cities will cover each hill
Today will just be a fond memory
Man walks among us be still be still
Man walks among us be still
