FINLAND

by Stuart Logan - Sagittarius

Finland

Finland, your calling to me
like a choir that sings harmony
Finland, Suomi
where my heart lies far across the sea

Sleep baby sleep
away in your city by the sea
where the Baltic laps the shores of Helsinki
where dreams are made and I believe
those dreams they can come true
you told me that you love me
and I fell in love with you

Dream baby dream
of snow tipped pines beneath the Arctic stars
where northern lights they dance upon your lakes so smooth and calm
on long cold Winter nights
we'll keep each other snug and warm
we'll lie in each others arms
until the break of dawn

Wake baby wake
in a wonderland where wolf and reindeer roam
and in the blue twighlight we'll rise where nature has her home
the green gold of the forest
as the Winter turns to Spring
upon the Lapland skyline
there are snow geese on the wing

Fly baby fly
to warmer climes when South Karelias free
and we shall celebrate a great Finnish history
the midnight sun will shine
across a wild wilderness
the bear thats in the east
shall find a new friend in the west

Finland, your calling to me
like a choir that sings harmony
Finland, Suomi
where my heart lies far across the sea

Reason for writing:

    Its in you heart, beneath your sky
and its out in the wild
from mother to daughter
in your home since you were a child
and Finnish Lady
I love you because
there's more than beauty within your soul
