Wilderness Wheel

Lyrics

[Intro] Yes Now, if we're really quiet— [Chorus] Paddling Paddling Paddling Paddling Paddling [Verse 1] See that white pine tree? That's an eagle's nest on top of it Now if we're really lucky— Ah—oh my gosh [Chorus] Paddling Paddling Paddling Paddling Paddling [Verse 2] There are only two loons per lake Hear them answer on the other lake? What? That's weird Hey! There's a deer, two fawns They're staring at us [Verse 3] You You've come from so far To be here right now Streaming from the four corners of this beautiful round Teeming marketplaces Dusty caravans Phoenician triremes Silent mountain paths [Verse 4] Pompeii Constantinople Kaikobad Pehlevi Tanton Tokyo Okinawa Oahu Who are you? Who am I? Delphi Many miles Many lives To reach this undulating light [Chorus] Paddling Paddling Paddling Paddling J-stroke [Verse 5] Hey, there's a beaver dam I don't see any beavers Look! There, oh, oh, oh—over there! A moose And, and a bear And a wolf And a rabbit Did you know that all God's creatures got shoes? It's true Just one more portage to go [Verse 6] Cabin Wilderness Waiting Tired Dusty Strip Bathe Firelight Listening To the great wilderness wheel Whence we came
