Deva Premal
Free Spirit (Ashes to Ashes)
[Verse 1: Miten]
Spirit of the river
I can hear you
I feel as if I'm
Deep inside your soul
I see you laughing
Intoxicated dancing
Will you carry me with you
When I'm gone?
[Verse 2: Miten]
Spirit of the forest
I'll be with you
I've traveled far
To be among your kind
Now you're teaching me how to live
Among your people
I'm so far
From the world I left behind
[Chorus: Miten]
Ashes to ashes
Sermons in stone
Oh, how time passes
We're here and then we're gone
And all that remains
When we're free of our chains
Is the love we shared
The love we shared
[Verse 3: Miten]
Mother Earth
What can I give back to you?
As you carry me
Carry me to my rest
Yes, and I bow to the turning
Of your seasons
As I lay
My head upon your breast
[Chorus: Miten]
Ashes to ashes
Sermons in stone
Oh, how time passes
We're here and then we're gone
And all that remains
When we're free of our chains
Is the love we shared
The love we shared
[Outro: Miten & (Deva Premal)]

You're a free spirit now
You're a free spirit
([non-lexical singing])
You're a free spirit now
