BOREALIS
by Desmond Grundy
Lyrics
I know you want it
but you don't understand it
I know you need it
like your whole life depended on it
Hockey's in the news again
Talk about the weather
Parliament raised the tax on me
Playoff time in the rain
I know you want it
Labrador to Vancouver Island
I know you want it
Nunavut to Niagara Falls
Borealis fading in and out
Skating 'cross the sky
Lakes so wide we call them great
Thirty-one words for snow
Wait and see
Wait and feel
Wait and find
Stand on guard
On the late night talk shows
French radio and The Nature of Things
On the road to Moose Jaw,
Wawa, Ottawa, Mississauga
