LYRICS:

I Can See Russia From Alaska (When I Look In Your Eyes)
(Brookshire/Jaramillo 2008)


Nobody had any faith
Oh, they thought we would fail,
But look how we blossomed here
Under the midnight sun.
Wrapped in the fur of a bear
and the skin of a whale,
huddled together
we battle the Outside as one.

Who else on earth could I turn to
when the Devil comes round spreading lies?
I can see Russia
from Alaska
when I look in your eyes.

Thanks, but no thanks
To that bridge, but Id take a kiss
From the bush town Beauty
Wholl bring any moose to its knees.
Like Esther, brought to the king
For a time such as this
To rescue her people
And punish all our enemies

Who else on earth would I run to
If tomorrow brings rapturing skies
I can see Russia
from Alaska
when I look in your eyes.

We will not blink
We will not think
We dont question
We wont compromise
I see Heaven
From Alaska
When I look in your eyes.

Actually, if you stand on Little Diomede Island and look across to Big Diomede Island, you CAN see Russia. Why don't you take your ukulele and try it. In January.

[Imperator104]

Misspelling of Ukulele- CHECK

[heyawhaw]

Oh dear, what a simpleton, shallow attempt to shoot the messenger instead of the message.

Disappointing & embarrassing

[heyawhaw]

Perfect ... good song, well performed!

[ETHRIDGEPRIOR]

I like this little ditty.

[thomcub]

This song is like you mixed Israel Kamakawiwo'ole with Jason Mraz

[floydfan319]

I thought it was a joke,

I was pretty sure it was brilliant on many satirical levels.

I think....
