lyrics

Like the Yukon – Karen Furlong

I came to you for inspiration and you took my breath away
I came to you for beauty, ‘cause you stay beautiful all day
I came to you for pleasure, and you pleased me all the while,
I came to have some fun with you because you always make me smile
Isn’t it amazing the sun is brighter in your back yard?
I could fall in love with you; you know it really wouldn’t be that hard

Sun sets to the left, driving up the highway
You know I never planned to stay
I don’t mind if I stay through the night
Under this midnight sun, you’ll surely be a sight!

I ran to you for sanity and I guess I’m still alright
Like the aurora, you bring magic to the night
I ran to you for freedom because you give me room to breathe
I ran to you for faith in love and you helped me to believe
In a world as dark as this one, you shine just like a star
I could run away my love you know I’d never really get too far

Sun sets to the left, Alaska Highway
I wonder why I went away
I think I might just drive through the night
Under this midnight sun, you’ll still be a sight

My heart is a compass
Pointing north straight and true
I had to go and see the world my love,
But now I’ve come home to you

Sun sets to the left, end of the highway
I know this time I plan to stay
I’ve a mind to stay all my life
‘Cause under this midnight sun, you’ll always be a sight
Yes, under this midnight sun you’ll always be a sight
You’re like the Yukon to me
Such a sight to see
Where I always want to be
Yes, you’re like the Yukon to me!
