"Sunlight at Midnight"

Oh the Klondike so right
Our land of vision and might
Where others come & wanna stay
And learn the pioneer way
Sunlight at midnight
Watch auroras all night
Summer snows and winter rains
Heavy wind that always strains
All the wild and nature pains
Now the Yukon is my home
And I'll live here 'til I die
Came here when I was a child
To this place that is so very wild
Married a man who was born in this land
Where people are stronger and take their stand
Sunlight at midnight and I'll stay here that's right
No need to question why
Few leave or bid goodbye
Colors spring from underground
Glaciers thaw from all around
So early on the crocus spring
Foxes dance as if to sing
The highest peaks we'll ever know
Never thaw from winter snow
The Klondike so right
Land of sun at midnight
It's a pioneer rite
Wild rose and fireweed
Melting ice on lakes recede
A taste of spring is in the air
Frozen days are now so rare
Oh the Klondike at midnight
A land where gold miners fight
For all the girls that dance at night
For all the gold within their might
A place to rendezvous with you
Winter days are so short of you only knew
Bitter cold and hoarfrost
Endless forests where you get lost
Pine trees blowing in the fright of night
A grizzly wanders in all its might
Wolverines seen in the broad daylight
Afraid of nothing in their sight
See the sunlight at midnight
Our land of vision and might
Where people come and wish to stay
From cities so far away
Folks will come and seldom go
Where they're from you rarely know
Build a cabin from logwood
And lead a life as though they could
And here in the Yukon that's often the way
Oh the Klondike so right
Our land of vision and might
The auroras in the sky
Where mountain goats climb high
The Klondike so right
Land of sun at midnight
The auroras in the sky
Where caribou graze on high
The owl and falcon fly for their prey
And here in the Yukon you see it that way
The lynx and the cougar hunt with such grace
While polar and muskox live on the North Face
And the Yukon River flows
For miles no one goes
It's a pioneer rite of sun at midnight
The auroras dance at night
Bitter cold and hoarfrost
A warmer winter makes summer lost
Oh the cold's our only cost
A taste of spring is in the air
Frozen days a late affair
Summer storms and winter rains
All the wild and natural pains
The highest peaks we'll ever know
Never thaw from winter snow
Oh the Klondike so right
A land of gold miner's plight
A place where gold miners fight
For all the gold within their might
A land that's larger than life
The auroras dance at night
See the sunlight at night
Our land of vision and might
We live form out of nowhere
No one knows we're here
And the flood of others is our only fear
And your jurisdiction we don't want here
See the sunlight at night
It's a pioneer rite
The auroras dance at night
The auroras dance at night
The Klondike so right
Land of sun at midnight
We're the land of the midnight sun
The land of the midnight sun
A land of sunlight all night
The land of the midnight sun.
