lyrics

Over ravines
Up and down, carry the weight
Behind the screen
The scent the sound of burning Birch bark

A blistering orange sunset
A warning in the clouds
Calls us to the shore
Of Gitchi Gummi
Reflecting your eyes of blue

In the water with me you move slow
Cold and clear round stones at our toes
Waves so gentle
Refracted light
Catching the color of our delight

Sitting on the shoreline
The sky opens our place beyond forever
It's reaching for our eyes

Gitchi Gummi asks to go to sleep
Gitchi Gummi asks to go to sleep
Gitchi Gummi
Next to the beach

As we awake
A pulse of breath, wriggling bodies
Sandpiper's call, to be heard
Cutting through our amnesia

Finding a rhythmic pace
Counting fissures
Glimpses through the trees
Weaving is back to the edge
Of blissful dreaming
Gitchi Gummi
