The East has that Englishmen
And the rising sun
The West has the open plains

And how they were won
On Independence Day
For all it's worth

You can ring those southern belles
I'm going
North


Up were the rushing rivers run and salmon leap
I could even get there in my sleep

Give me the ice and snow
Time to go...
North


So run up a banner and we'll stand underneath
You gave me a starry flag

For one with a leaf
I'm on the borderline
I jump back and forth

There's nothing to stop me now
I'm heading...
North


Up where the polar bears and moose and geese will play
And some of them address you en francais

Give me the ice and snow
Time to go...
North


And so I must leave you all
Alas and alack

And though we are parting now
I'll always come back
So as the compass points

That's where I'll be
But if you could only see
The perfection of...


North
It's something I will always carry in my heart

A place when dreams begin and life can start
Who cares what people know?
Let me go...

North
