Land of the North Wind

Lyrics

When I returned to the south lands, the land I was born in
 I'd been many years travelling, a long time away
 Oh, maybe I'd changed some, in truth a little older
 But I felt like a stranger who'd lost his way
 And I looked to the north winds
 And listened for a whisper
 The mountains were calling
 Come on home
 Oh, land of the north wind, I want to walk in your forest
 I want to climb your mountains and reach for the sky
 Like the golden eagle in its flight for freedom
 I'm taking the high road, and I'm learning to fly
 And I looked to the north winds
 And listened for a whisper
 The mountains were calling
 Come on home
 And you're nobody's mistress, you're not easily taken
 Once forsaken you won't be crossed
 You hide your beauty behind your thunder
 And the false intruder is easily lost
 And I looked to the north winds
 And listened for a whisper
 The mountains were calling
 Come on home
 And I looked to the north winds
 And listened for a whisper
 The mountains were calling
 Come on home
 Oh rage on, north wind, take a message to the mountains
 I'm crossing your border, I can weather your storm
 I'm the prodigal returning, looking for shelter
 I was a long time learning and I'm coming home
 And I looked to the north winds
 And listened for a whisper
 The mountains were calling
 Come on home
 Come on home, come on home
 Come on home, come on home
