lyrics

The Length Of Canada

A shiny white ocean from above as the crow flies in

And from my boat I’ve seen

Footprints in snowdrifts & blue eyes on Queen St.



I’ll think of your when I’m cold

With a warmth you’ll never know.



My green eyes looking south

Can feel California sending its warmth out

While continents and sea

Separate her from me.



Reading your face like a library book

An old familiar friend

That I can’t hold on to

For long enough to read through till the end

Wherever I go there’s someone to pine for as I sail around the world

So I’ll make a home

In the memory of you

Girl.



The greatest view I’ve seen

A snowy complexion with eyes an ocean deep.

And blue eyes

You’ll never know.
