Whispers of the north
|
Soon I will go forth
|
To that wild and barren land
|
Where nature takes its course
|
Whispers of the wind
|
Soon I will be there again
|
Bound with a wild and restless drive
|
That pulls me from within
|
And we can ride away
|
We can glide all day
|
And we can fly away
|
|
Whispers of the north
|
Soon I will return again
|
To those endless afternoons
|
In sunshine and in rain
|
Whispers of my love
|
Days and weeks on end
|
I will share my thoughts of her
|
In prayers that I will send
|
|
And we can ride away
|
We can glide all day
|
And we can fly away
|
|
Whispers of the north
|
The river and the shore
|
In the land that tested Eskimos
|
Ten thousand years before
|
Whispers of my heart
|
In the tracks of animals
|
I will leave my footprints there
|
To lie beneath the snow
|
|
And we can ride away
|
We can glide all day
|
And we can fly away
|
|
Whispers of the wind
|
I will feel it sting
|
I will see it rise and fall
|
I will hear it sing
|
The sound is like a song to me
|
It takes away the pain
|
The river is the melody
|
And sky is the refrain
|
|
And we can ride away
|
We can glide all day
|
And we can fly away
|
|
And we can ride away
|
We can glide all day
|
And we can fly away
|
|
Whispers of the north
|
Soon I will go forth
|
Whispers of the north
|
Soon I will go forth
|
