There's an owl flying from the south
Heading north from the Superstition Mountains
Gone like the shadow of a life
Fading in the dark surroundings

While we who travel on the rim
Seeking love and finding understanding
Go safely on our way
The shadows lengthen in the canyon

Into this world everything is born
All colors come together
And we take our place on the sacred hoop
And when we go we leave forever

And those who travel on the rim
Seeking love and finding understanding
Go safely on their way
As the shadows lengthen in the canyon

And like the shadows of a life
We are formed by the rising sun
And like the owl our spirit flies
To say goodbye when our day is done

And those who travel on the rim
Seeking love and finding understanding
Go safely on their way
While the shadows lengthen in the canyon

There is an owl flying from the south
Heading north from the Superstition Mountains
Gone like the shadow of a life
Fading in the dark surroundings
