I can hear the trees start whispering
Their colors speak of change coming
The bluebird's song is gone till spring
And I sit here just waiting
But through it all I've come to know
That all these feelings come and go
And after all is said and done
There's nothing new under the sun
Over the river and through the trees
The north wind brings its winter freeze
But I've got everything I need
Except my love, come back to me.
But through it all I've come to know
That all these feelings come and go
And after all is said and done
There's nothing new under the sun.
Oh, I've seen all there is to see
From Pei to Calgary
From the eastern fisheries
To the disappearing forest trees.
From Thunder Bay to Tofino
I've been as far as the highway goes
Above it all of this I'm sure
These earthly things, they can't endure.
