Lyrics

[00:00.00] Just As It Should Be
[00:01.00] From the "Caribou Commons" CD
[00:02.00] (c)(p) Matthew Lien / Whispering Willows Music 1999
[00:04.39]
[00:06.52]
[00:14.23] Relentlessly, the Arctic Sea resounds upon the shore
[00:25.57] Mew gulls court the waves report,
[00:31.74] just as ten-thousand years before
[00:39.89] And coming through, the caribou renew the ancient round
[00:50.66] And as they do, a chosen few return their bodies to the ground
[01:02.82]
[01:04.74] And It is tragic, it is pure
[01:09.04] To survive is to endure
[01:15.28] And all is just as it should be
[01:20.88] The coastal plain, the Arctic Sea
[01:27.06]
[01:29.54] And Summer herds move on towards the call of distant lands
[01:40.68] Leaving only memories, and cloven hoof-prints in the sand
[01:53.47] And the ocean glimmers gold tonight, bathed in Arctic light
[02:06.11] Somewhere a tern takes rest from flight
[02:12.87] Somewhere a calf will die tonight
[02:20.09]
[02:21.69] And It is tragic, it is pure
[02:26.49] To survive is to endure
[02:33.29] And all is just as it should be
[02:39.14] The coastal plain, the Arctic Sea
[02:45.76] And all is just as it should be
[02:57.31]
