I Can't Give My Liberation
I can't give my liberation
For some writing that I don't know
I can't leave this red man's nation
For a home where no plant will grow
But I know
When tomorrow comes
Yes, I know
They will bring their guns
And I know
That I'll have to be running away
Afraid
Lonely in the night
Lonely in the night
So cold, so warm, the desert land
Lonely in the night
I'm lonely in the night
I'll try, I'll die to leave
I'm fighting for the world I knew
Which was my treasure
Nothing could mean more to me
Lonely in the night
I'll end my hopeless fight in solitude
Ooh, ooh, solitude
Ooh, ooh, just no use
They can make an old man happy
With some beads and a magic show
They can tell us life is easy
Now that they've killed the buffalo
But I see
As the world revolves
Yes, I see
That there's just no hope
And I see
That I'll have to be fading away
Afraid
Lonely in the night
Lonely in the night
So cold, so warm, the desert land
Lonely in the night
I'm lonely in the night
I'll try, I'll die to leave
I'm fighting for the world I knew
Which was my treasure
Nothing could mean more to me
Lonely in the night
I'll end my hopeless fight in solitude
Ooh, ooh, solitude
Sharing my fate
With desert sand and rocks
The sky's my ceiling
And nightmare comes and goes
Along with misery
A heart without a home
But I call
And I hope
I stay, I stay
And pray
Lonely in the night
Lonely in the night
So cold, so warm, the desert land
Lonely in the night
I'm lonely in the night
I'll try, I'll die to leave
I'm fighting for the world I knew
Which was my treasure
Nothing could mean more to me
Lonely in the night
I'll end my hopeless fight in solitude
Ooh, ooh, solitude
Ooh, ooh, just no use
I'll end my hopeless fight
Lonely in the night
Ooh, ooh, solitude
Ooh, ooh, just no use
I'll end my hopeless fight
Lonely in the night
Ooh, ooh, solitude
