lyrics

The summer's golden days
I can remember
we dreamed them all away
Now the witch of November
Is blowing gales again on the great lakes
And your hands shake when the storm breaks in
It's the end

You can blame it on the lake effect
The sky is falling and it ain't done yet
Don't you know that when it takes effect
No way of telling where the sun will set

Long live our northern souls
The tilted sunlight
Throws shadows lone and cold
Til the moonlight makes fire of the snow
Makes you feel like
We've lived this all before

Don't let the days roll by
We fought, we won, we ran from the storm
We learned, we taught, we died, we were born
We kissed, we cried, we vowed, we lied
We turned the page, we turned the screw
You fought for me and I fought for you

And now these golden days
Of the summer
Have vanished in the haze of winter slumber
The storm comes through in waves
Pushes us under
The snow could last for days

Long Live our northern souls
The tilted sunlight
Throws shadows long and cold
Til the moonlight makes fires of the snow
Makes you feel like
We've lived this all before

I can see it coming over the shore
A hundred white horses pulling the storm
Everybody's running, flocking the deer
Some of us are dancing, waiting for more
