Where sun and wind play on a ring of bright water That's where my heartland will be The deer on the hill in the first snow of winter The gull in the sky winging free I wandered away from the dark, crowded city Leaving my old life behind And came to a place where a ring of bright water Dazzled the care from my mind So I live with the wonder of the sky and the sea And I'll always remember who revealed them to me
But now you are gone with your whirlpools of laughter Racing me down to the sea But I always smile when a ring of bright water Echoes your laughter to me But now you are gone with your whirlpools of laughter Racing me down to the sea But I always smile when a ring of bright water Echoes your laughter to me Echoes your laughter to me
