Northern Mystery - A Song for the North

Some are adventurous enough to leave it all behind and trade the city for the frontier. I've met a few of these souls around Sault Ste. Marie and Thunder Bay, living by the 'Big Lake' - Lake Superior. This is little anthem about these courageous few who have embraced the mysterious frontier of Superior Country!

lyrics
Tired of the city life and
Yearning for northern pine stands
Ever-calling
They gave notice to the boss for Leaving for good out the door
All the way smiling

They traded comfort for the trail
To the north wind set sail
Free and clear
Let the wind and waters guid em
At the mercy of the
Raw-land frontier

In the Arms of the Big Lake
The charms of long summer days
Treelines never-ending
The Great Northern Mystery

Journeyed all on through the heartland
Tired from the summer heat and
So many miles
Scaled every rock hilltop
Drank from her icy water
So clear and wild

Feet burned on lonesome white sand
Hands froze through sudden fog and
Relentless wind
Every-rambling at the lake edge
Under watchful eyes of the
Painted Legends

In the Arms of the Big Lake
The charms of long summer days
Treelines never-ending
The Great Northern Mystery

Humbled by the elements now,
Wiser than the other folks who
Never left town
Seldom looking back behind em
Just some dusty tracks tell where they’d been

In the Arms of the Big Lake
The charms of long summer days
Treelines never-ending
The Great Northern Mystery
