Gordon Lightfoot - Waiting For You Lyrics
Say what you will, I will miss you my friendsLet me move along for the road never endsVowing to live till the end of all timeAll the way to the ends of the earth because imWaiting for you to say you will be mineMany long days, many long yearsMany wrong plays, many wrong fearsI could be tossed in the arms of the seaI could be caught between decks eternallyWaiting for you to ask whats keeping meWhat would we do at the end of the dayWhen the hours are asleep and the time slips awayChildren are all that the earth has to showChildren are all that the earth wants to knowUp here in the northland, up here in the snowUp in the wilderness, land of our birthLand of our toil, land of our worthI could stay healthy and wealthy and wiseFor I love the snow other snowbirds criticizeTell that to a wife and youll get a surpriseThe skies of north america are covered in starsOver factories and farms, over hamlets and barsThe breeze of north america is breathless at nightOut there in the distance some souls are in flightSome soft-hearted lovers whose goals are in sightHere in my on-again, off-again styleHere in my on-again, off-again smileHere in my off-again, on-again grinHere in my off-again, on-again skinWaiting for you to say let us begin
