lyrics

Can't wait for you to see this place
Maybe you can feel the water on your mother's skin
Maybe you can hear your father's voice
Or the barking dog when the boat comes in

I can see you building castles in the sand
Build them up high like only you can
Build them to the heavens where your auntie stands
Build them with imagination and your bare hands

You'll be mesmerized by the swaying tree tops
The wind that blows so hard across the lake
The fire burning brightly in the wood stove
The love we all have for you to take

Your mind will surely drift just like a cedarstrip
Adrift on spirits calling out your name
Down comes the danger and up go the flames
Changing forever but always the same
