lyrics

Do you know how cold the winters are up here?
If you choose to follow please come warm and near
A morning's thaw, no tracks in the snow
Dew drips from the fingertips off the trees to the shrubs below

"But I'll go further north," she said, "How different can it be"
"Water sheds and water brings life to you and me"
See it through, don't let it carry you away
Hold on true, I wouldn't have it any other way

So don't stop
What your singing
Because I'm taken it to heart
Keep
What I'm playing
It's been yours from the start
And know
That what you gave
I'll always show
For Jojo, forever ago

Songbirds singing, roots reach through the soil
Blossoms bring, and the tendrils toil
Lose the rest and put it between you and I
The water returns from the earth to the sky

So don't stop
What your singing
Because I'm taken it to heart
Keep
What I'm playing
It's been yours from the start
And know
That what you gave
I'll always show
For Jojo, forever ago
