Listening North

Sing for me now, for I sing to you

Parka on, parka warm

Hat for ears, mitts for ears

I hear well, I hear animals singing

 

Hear me now, for I hear you

Sounds of yours and sounds of mine

I am called Listening North 

 

See the stars

See them bright

Far to reach

Close to you

 

Snow is cold

But the sun brings warmth

 

Hear my voice 

It sounds small

Though it is small

I hear love

And you are Listening North
