| I see the mountains, feel the salt air
|
| I have reasons to behold
|
| All the wonders that never cease to be
|
| You’re as timeless as the water
|
| You’re as gentle as the fields
|
| I caress you, oh, Cape Breton in my dreams
|
| And you never let the hard times
|
| Take away your soul
|
| And you stopped the tears from falling
|
| As you watched the young ones go
|
| You’re as peaceful as a clear day
|
| You’re as rugged as the seas
|
| I caress you, oh, Cape Breton in my dreams
|
| And home I’ll be
|
| Home I’ll be
|
| Banish thoughts of leaving
|
| Home I’ll be
|
| I see the blue lakes, feel the passion
|
| I have reasons to believe
|
| There are places that will bring you to your knees
|
| I hear voices they are calling
|
| I have reason to pay heed
|
| I caress you, oh, Cape Breton in my dreams
|
| And you kept your arms wide open
|
| To let your children know
|
| Wherever there is distance
|
| The heart is always home
|
| You’re as soulful as a choir
|
| You’re as ancient as the hills
|
| I caress you, oh, Cape Breton in my dreams
|
| And home I’ll be
|
| Home I’ll be
|
| Banish thoughts of leaving
|
| Home I’ll be
|
| And home I’ll be
|
| Home I’ll be
|
| Banish thoughts of leaving
|
| Home I’ll be
|
| Banish thoughts of leaving
|
| Home I’ll be |
