While I'm Gone

While I'm gone, please don't change a thing, don't change a thing at all

While I'm gone, please don't change a thing, you know you're beautiful

And I'm walking in the sunshine with my head held high

Got my family together, got this big blue sky

And I'll go one direction with my radio on

Recieving what I need to know, degesting wisdom

I can fly like an eagle from the ridges above

Decending on the people with the power of my love

Cause I believe in truth and I believe in love

I believe we are protected from the spirits above

While I'm gone, please don't change a thing, don't change a thing at all

While I'm gone, please don't change a thing, you know you're beautiful

And I see a sister walking with her radio on

She got flowers in her hair and she's singing this song

I don't know sometimes we're coming and sometimes we're going

Sometimes we're in the middle of the great unknown

Either way respect for momma and her seven cubs

And the staunch preparation for the things to come

I will go one direction with my radio on

I'll keep it nice and simple, sending lots of love

While I'm gone, please don't change a thing, don't change a thing at all

While I'm gone, please don't change a thing, you know you're beautiful

Sending love to Barcelona And I'll be sending love to California

And I'll be sending love to Argentina

(my island, my home)

And I'll be big love Aotearoa and I'll be sending love to Papua, New Guinea

Sending love to Izintaba

(my island, my home)

Madiba, big love Samoa and I'll be sending love to Yirrkala

My island, my home
