Lyrics Buffy Sainte-Marie

Buffy Sainte-Marie

Still This Love Goes On

Sat beside a beaver dam and watched the winter grow

Ice was hard with little tracks appearing in the snow

Fog is in the valley now and all the geese are gone

Cross the moon I saw them go and

Still this love goes on and on

Still this love goes on.

Once I watched the summer flowers turn the fields to sun

Up and down the mountainside I watched the summer run

Now the fields are muffled in white and snow is on the dawn

Morning comes on shivering wings and

Still this love goes on and on

Still this love goes on.

In every dream I can smell the Sweetgrass burning

And in my heart I can hear the drum

and hear the singers soaring

and se-e the jin-gle dancers

and Still this love goes on and on

Still this love goes on.

Fancy Dancer come up north to see some friends of his

Fell in love in a powwow town and you know how that is

Beaded girls and painted ponies turn your life around

and now you're singing "Ke sakihiten" ha on and on

On and on and on and on and

In every dream I can smell the Sweetgrass burning

And in my heart I can hear the drum

and hear the singers soaring

and se-e the jin-gle dancers

and Still this love goes on and on

Still this love goes on.
