I LOVE ALASKA

Sitting on a bluff in Alaska 
Mid July... 
The midnight sun 
Sinking behind "The Sleeping Lady"
 I have found... 
My newest love 

~~~*Chorus*~~~
I Love Alaska
The glaciers, rivers and the trees...
I Love Alaska
The mountains and the ebbing sea
Oh
I didn't think my heart would sway
But the minute I got off that plane
I knew...
I Loved Alaska
~~*~~

Standing on the bank of the "Kenai"
Looking down...
So wild and free
Beauty and power overwhelm me
Marvel of...
A sea foam green

~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~
Blooming everywhere is the bright pink Fireweed
 Saw more eagles today, than I have ever seen
Witnessing the Northern lights 
Grace the darkened skies...
Is one more thing to keep me here
Emotionally high...

~~~*Chorus*~~~
I Love Alaska
The glaciers, rivers and the trees...
I Love Alaska
The mountains and the ebbing sea
Oh
I didn't think my heart would sway
But the minute I got off that plane
I knew...
I Loved Alaska
~~*~~
