Cat Power — Cherokee lyrics

Lyrics

Never knew love like this
The wind, the moon, the earth, the sky
Sky so high
Never knew pain like this
Everything die, then die
Never knew love like this
The sun, the sea, you and I (you and I)
Never knew pain, never knew shame
Now I know why
Bury me, marry me to the sky
Marry, marry me to the sky
If I die before my time
Bury me upside down
Cherokee, kissing me When I’m on my way down
If I die before my time
Bury me upside down
Cherokee, kissing me When I’m, I’m going down
Never knew love like this
The wind, the moon, the earth, the sky
Sky so high
Never knew pain like this
Everything die, then die
Never knew love like this
The sun, the sea, you and I (you and I)
Never knew pain, never knew shame
Now I know why
Bury me, marry me to the sky
Marry, marry me to the sky
If I die before my time
Bury me upside down
Cherokee, kissing me When I’m on my way down
If I die before my time
Bury me upside down
Cherokee, kissing me When I’m going down
If I die before my time
Bury me upside down, down
Cherokee, kissing me When I’m on my way down
