Write a song for me, my love
With your heart in your pen
Your poetry and a broken verse

The air that I breathe
And your golden words


Sing a song for me, my love
With your heart in your lungs
To carry your voice across the prairies

And over the mountains
And back home to me


And I'll sing a song for you, my love
That the birds will all know
And I'll carry my heart over the shivering leaves

And over great lakes and inland sea
And we'll carry my heart back home to thee
