lyrics

BLOW, CANADIAN, BLOW

(Robert A. Wilders)

(CHORUS)
Blow, Canadian, blow.
Your winds are heavy.
Your chains set free.
Blow, Canadian, blow.

It was in British Columbia many years ago.
That I met the woman who’d upset me so.
She was cute and so pretty she moved like a deer.
I never thought there’d be reason to fear.

Yeah she hooked me.
She caught me.
She reeled me right in.
As she left me there stranded I heard her sing.

(chorus)

It was at Fort Langley on the Fraser River.
Where the cold cuts so deep your bones always shiver.
We walked side by side so much in love.
But in the morning she was gone like the last lonely dove.

She spread her wings open wide.
And gently took flight.
Leaving nothing to hide.
Singing into the night.

(chorus)

I searched from the Pacific Ocean to Baffin Bay
From the Arctic Ocean to the USA
At all the places we’d haunted I looked around.
And all the old friends I asked said she was no where to be found.

She was gone like the wind.
Like a ghost in the day.
I know I’ll never find her.
So all I can say....is

(chorus)
