Say what you will, i will miss you my friends |
|
Let me move along for the road never ends |
|
Vowing to live till the end of all time |
|
All the way to the ends of the earth because i'm |
|
Waiting for you to say you will be mine |
|
Many long days, many long years |
|
Many wrong plays, many wrong fears |
|
I could be tossed in the arms of the sea |
|
I could be caught between decks eternally |
|
Waiting for you to ask what's keeping me |
|
What would we do at the end of the day |
|
When the hours are asleep and the time slips away |
|
Children are all that the earth has to show |
|
Children are all that the earth wants to know |
|
Up here in the northland, up here in the snow |
|
Up in the wilderness, land of our birth |
|
Land of our toil, land of our worth |
|
I could stay healthy and wealthy and wise |
|
For i love the snow other snowbirds criticize |
|
Tell that to a wife and you'll get a surprise |
|
The skies of north america are covered in stars |
|
Over factories and farms, over hamlets and bars |
|
The breeze of north america is breathless at night |
|
Out there in the distance some souls are in flight |
|
Some soft-hearted lovers whose goals are in sight |
|
Here in my on-again, off-again style |
|
Here in my on-again, off-again smile |
|
Here in my off-again, on-again grin |
|
Here in my off-again, on-again skin |
|
Waiting for you to say let us begin |
