Cold Canadian Waters

COLD CANADIAN WATERS by Roy Payne

In the cold Canadian waters,north from the coast of Maine

There's a Island called Newfoundland,swept by snow wind and rain

On the Island.there's a village,with its customs and its ways

Then little town of Carmenville,my home of childhood days

Those childhood days were something,carefree all the time

There's a girl in every story and you know there's one in mine

She broke my heart so often and it stays a little sore

That's the reason I left home and can't go back no more

Where the people make a living on the land and on the sea

There are people on the Island that means the world to me

I wish I had the power to change the path of time

And live again in Newfoundland,my home of childhood time

I love to watch the sailboats as they glide across the bay

To see again the farmers sew the seeds and cut the hay

You see the Island has no strangers everybody is your friend

The little Isle of Newfoundland,I'd love to see again

Repeat Chorus
