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
