Unknown Land
(S.Ungerleider)
Lay down sleepy head, rest your weary head
Tomorrow you give yourself away
You know not what will be, stop trying so hard to see
Something you'll find along the way
In an unknown land upon which you shall stand
You'll forge a path that is your own
Don't be afraid to fail, to be weak or to be frail
And know your heart is always home
Girl, my girl, rest before the dawn begins to break
Girl, my girl, you will be the one to find your way
Across the rocky shield, to the wind the branches yield
Their arms waving to the sun
The dance of the old Jack Pine, roots and rock entwine
So strong it will not be undone
Know when to use your wings or to be carried by the wind
and know your roots are deep and strong
Girl, my girl, rest before the dawn begins to break
Girl, my girl, you will be the one to find your way.
Tomorrow you give yourself away
You know not what will be, stop trying so hard to see
Something you'll find along the way
In an unknown land upon which you shall stand
You'll forge a path that is your own
Don't be afraid to fail, to be weak or to be frail
And know your heart is always home
Girl, my girl, rest before the dawn begins to break
Girl, my girl, you will be the one to find your way
Across the rocky shield, to the wind the branches yield
Their arms waving to the sun
The dance of the old Jack Pine, roots and rock entwine
So strong it will not be undone
Know when to use your wings or to be carried by the wind
and know your roots are deep and strong
Girl, my girl, rest before the dawn begins to break
Girl, my girl, you will be the one to find your way.
