Cat Power - Cherokee lyrics

rate me

(It's my way…)

I never knew love like this;

The wind, the moon, the earth, the sky

(Sky so high)

I never knew pain like this,

When everything dies, (then dies)

I never knew love like this;

The sun, sea, you and I, (you and I)

I never knew pain, I never knew shame,

Now I know all.

Bury me, marry me to the sky,

Bury me, marry me to the sky,

Bury me, marry me to the sky,

Bury me, marry me to the sky...

If I die before my time,

Bury me upside down.

Cherokee, kiss me,

When I'm on my way down.

If I die before my time,

Bury me upside down.

Cherokee, kiss me,

When I am going down.

Never knew love like this;

The wind, moon, the earth, the sky

(The sky's so high)

Never knew pain like this,

When everything dies.

Never knew love like this;

Sun, Sea, you and I (you and I)

I never knew pain, I never knew shame

And now I know all

Bury me, marry me to the sky,

Bury me, marry me to the sky,

Bury me, marry me to the sky,

Bury me, marry me to the sky...

If I die before my time,

Bury me upside down.

Cherokee, kiss me,

When I'm on my way down.

If I die before my time,

Bury me upside down.

Cherokee, kiss me

When I am going down

(If I die before my time,

Bury me upside down…

Cherokee, kiss me)

It's my way...
