This longing lives deep within me
Trees of green and nature's glory
For a place I once felt safe and free
For northern lights and endless stories
Trees of green and nature's glory
Explored through childhood's purity
For northern lights and endless stories
Paint pictures of joy and security
Explored through childhood's purity
The magic and wonder of life
Paint pictures of joy and security
Free from all pain and strife
The magic and wonder of life
As lovely as the rain in the sky
Free from all pain and strife
Soaring as high as an eagle can fly
As lovely as the rain in the sky
This love in my heart still holds true
Soaring as high as an eagle can fly
Alaska, I pray once again to greet you
This love in my heart still holds true
For a place I once felt safe and free
Alaska, I pray once again to greet you
This longing lives deep within me
