Lyrics: 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 |
