Girl From The North Country

If you're traveling in the north country fair Where the wind stands heavy on the borderline Remember me to one who lives there For she once was a true love of mine If you go when the snowflakes storm When rivers freeze and summer ends Please see if she has a coat so warm To keep her from the howling winds Please see for me if her hair hangs long If it rolls and flows all down her breast Please see for me if her hair hangs long For that's the way I remember her best I wonder if she remembers me at all Day and night I've often prayed In the darkness of my night And in the brightness of my day --- Girl from the North Country - Altan
