These pines intertwine in patterns only we devise
Under pale skies where rivers meet returning tide
Another city
Another reason to live
And build our new life
Under these ancient trees
We'll work the soil, we'll build on stone
We'll find new names in this winter home
We'll work the soil, we'll build on stone
We'll find new names in this winter home
Waitin' by a firelight
Burning bows to warn the night
And everything I hold most dear
I trade for oak and ocean air
Another city
Another reason to live
And build our new life
Under these ancient trees
We'll work the soil, we'll build on stone
We'll find new names in this winter home
