Canada

Fancy hotel rooms
Windows with a view
Staring into nothing
I thought I saw you
Your colours dancing in my mind
But they were only neon signs
Oh canada
Im trying to find you
Will you wait for me.
Theres people on the street
I know Ill never meet
I wonder what theyre thinking
What their dreams are
But they just keep on walking by I can see the questions in their eyes
Oh canada
Youre a tree among towers
Just starting to climb
Please dont grow too quickly now
Dont leave us all behind
Pages of progress start to turn
Too quickly and the pages burn
Lets hope that we dont learn — too late
Lets hope its never too late to learn
No dont let the madness wash you way.
Life keeps rolling by Before it goes Ill try
To be stronger — to be wiser
Maybe just understand
What makes people fight to survive
While by themselves they slowly sigh
Oh canada —
Where are you going
Will you wait for me Oh canada
Im trying to find you
Will you wait for me
