aengus finnan - lightfoot lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
on the road that lies before us
from east to western sea
there’s a voice in the distance
it beckons, “follow me”
and it’s there within the forest
and beneath the silver moon
it whistles in the wires
with the memory of a tune

[verse 2]
well, you tread this country, lightfoot
and you took a mighty stand
when you saw in her a beauty
and held her rugged hand
from her shield and from her shoreline
you gathered in rhyme
tender words that told her story
they linger yet in time

[chorus]
ever will this land remember
ever will your name be strong
ever will the true north ring
with the glory of your song
[verse 3]
from the wide and rolling prairies
to the lights of massey hall
you sang about a people
dreamers one and all
and you climbed the highest mountains
felt the early morning rain
you traveled through the southland
but came home again

[chorus]
ever will this land remember
ever will your name be strong
ever will the true north ring
with the glory of your song

[bridge]
long gone, riverboat and yorkville days
long gone, the lines of navvies lay
long gone, lovers and the carefree highway
still here are the tracks you made

[chorus]
and ever will this land remember
ever will your name be strong
ever will the true north ring
with the glory of your song
ever will canada
sing the glory of your song
