North Country Girl

All The Best Cowboys Have Chinese Eyes
If your traveling in the north country a far
Where the winds hit heavy on the border line.
Remember me to one who lives there
For she once was a true love of mine.

And when you go, and the snow flakes fall
The rivers freeze, and summer ends
Please see for me, that she's wearing a coat so warm
Keep her from... that howling wind.

Please see for me that her hair is hanging long
And flows and flows on down her breast.
Please see for me that her hair is hanging long
For that's the way I remember her the best.

I'm wondering if she remembers me at all
The many times I've often laid
In the darkness of my light
The brightness, of my day.
