The moon is waxing over the water A silver path across the lake A loon is calling to her lover The sweetest love song ever sang Minnesota land of my childhood You are flowing through my veins And I am drawn to your safe harbor Forever thirsty for a drink Last night we watched the electric light show Playing wide across the sky Sat on the front porch in sacred silence The sparks almost made me cry Minnesota land of my childhood You are flowing through my veins And I am drawn to your safe harbor Forever thirsty for a drink Like the willow my roots grow stronger Searching deep searching wide I wanna linger a little longer Until I reach the other side The moon is waxing over the water A million stars fill up the night I am nothing I am holy A voyageur under northern lights Minnesota land of my childhood You are flowing through my veins And I am drawn to your safe harbor Forever thirsty for a drink
