lyrics

POINTS NORTH ©2014 Germaine Gemberling & Rich Mattson

Your rust colored earth and your beautiful birch
My home, the Iron Range, no longer I’ll search
You took my hand, my compass, my guide
And pointed me north

Led me deep in the woods in the shelter of trees
Your promise would make a believer out of me
No doubts I will have, a chosen path

These whispering trees
Sing a song in the breeze
Sounding so sweet

And a home is where you return to
Home - you can be
Home - you sleep soundly
Home - where you can dream

(musical interlude)
When I arrived here I didn’t yet know
Of chamomile carpets and dreams that would grow
It twirls all around you if you listen close

(to the) whispering leaves
A song in the breeze
So simple and sweet

And home - is where you return to
Home - you can be
Home - you sleep soundly
Home - where you can dream

Your rust colored earth and your beautiful birch
My home, the Iron Range, no longer I’ll search
You took my hand, my compass, my guide
And pointed me north
