Alaska

Remember I painted pictures of you

And I never found my way out

I spent a lifetime of dreams in the fields of your eyes

Lay me down when the rain covers you

And I'm afraid of the emptiness holding my thoughts

I see blue I see grey all the while

And when the night comes again I'll hold my hands to the skies

I've got a dream of home I've got a dream of home

And when the winter comes calling turn my face to the wind

I've got a dream of home I've got a dream

Of Alaska

Your name is whispered with the breath of my soul

In a hope that I'll never let fade

Between the mist on the waves and the blue of the sky

I threw a rose to the sea in your name

Now listen

Somewhere tonight there are tears on the wind

Are they yours are they mine I don't know

I'm crying out to the sky

I hope you're with me tonight

I've got a dream of home I've got a dream of home

And now the earth is left wanting

Turn my face to the wind

I've got a dream of home I've got a dream

Of Alaska

All through my life I stood tall as the sky

Hold to the things that I knew were so real

All I could feel

Strange how it goes how it comes to an end

Lord take your hand

Take you home once again
