"Crossing The 45th Parallel" lyrics
To pass between, these winter walls
While traveling at night
Taken by reflection
I mine my life
The trees have seen me come this way
Many times at any hours
They stand on both sides
And greet me, as I pass
A time and place, where winter begins
I see inspiring sights
Reminiscent of years gone by
I mine my life
I am, being expected
By those who are waiting at home
Taking caution
Knowing I'm guided by white lines covered in snow
On occasion I pass through
From the life I build
To the life I knew
Only the trees would have seen
Who held the wheel
Only they would have seen
When I grew tired of travel
Only the trees would have seen
Who held the wheel
Only they would have seen
When I lost control
In desperate times, in such desperation
This long road traveled once left me behind
Now used, for gaining momentum
The theme of it all
Defines my life
While traveling at night
Taken by reflection
I mine my life
The trees have seen me come this way
Many times at any hours
They stand on both sides
And greet me, as I pass
A time and place, where winter begins
I see inspiring sights
Reminiscent of years gone by
I mine my life
I am, being expected
By those who are waiting at home
Taking caution
Knowing I'm guided by white lines covered in snow
On occasion I pass through
From the life I build
To the life I knew
Only the trees would have seen
Who held the wheel
Only they would have seen
When I grew tired of travel
Only the trees would have seen
Who held the wheel
Only they would have seen
When I lost control
In desperate times, in such desperation
This long road traveled once left me behind
Now used, for gaining momentum
The theme of it all
Defines my life
