A Serengeti song in the well throat of a tusk horn made of time.
Dust dances on dune tops to your downbeat
and herds run molten pathways to my center settle sanctuary.
A Serengeti song in the well throat of a tusk horn made of time.
In the caves of blue water deep, in the mountains of white stone.
A Serengeti song in the well throat of a tusk horn.
I hear the call from the voice of heaven
Dripping the sweet life from fifteen thousand light years above
to the lusting lips of creation below.
