The Tongass

I knew faith was in your heart
I had faith in my dreams
I had that feeling right from the start
As we walk through the trees

I knew the world wouldn't fall apart
We'd set aside all our greed
I knew we'd get there right from the start
To watch the ocean recede

I saw the salmon swimin' far
Heard the wolves the other day
I knew the mountains would tell each star
Let's take care of this place

As the world spins slowly, I feel so lonely as i want to save you
Hoping one day darlin, we'll all be starting, to make you brand new
