Deep, deep in the northern wilderness I was enjoying the good kind of loneliness I've been waking up beneath an azure blue sky From the song of some chaffinches nearby The bright sun shines in the dancing leaves so green This forest must be the most beautiful sight I've seen The gentle roar of the rivers, a nature lovers psalm And my favorite lake, so beautiful and calm If it would only hide the reflection of my face This could have been my ideal place But the mountains won't hold back my sadness much longer Even a tough man could wish he had been stronger ♪ The birds sang for me today in a way as if they knew That when I gazed at the sky my thoughts were just as blue Underneath a summer night sky of both sun and the moon Now only the sad song of a lonely black-throated loon ♪ And deep, deep inside a northern forest Down under the surface of my lake dearest Mother earth my pain forever will erase And my tired body forever embrace ♪ The birds sang for me today in a way as if they knew That when I gazed at the sky my thoughts were just as blue Underneath a summer night sky of both sun and the moon Now only the sad song of a lonely black-throated loon And deep, deep inside a northern forest Down under the surface of my lake dearest Mother earth my pain forever will erase And my tired body forever embrace
