Nova Scotia I hear your ocean calling Nova Scotia I see you in my dreams Nova Scotia you whisper in the morning Forever in my heart you’ll be Forever in my heart you’ll be. The leaves in the silver birch are quivering As gusts of winds are dancing on it’s bows The doe and her fawn nestled below them Beside a river bubbling in song And the bears in the forest gathering berries Hurry to their hungry little cubs Nearby there is crackling fire and laughter A crow gives a warning cry above. Nova Scotia I hear your ocean calling Nova Scotia I see you in my dreams Nova Scotia you whisper in the morning Forever in my heart you’ll be Forever in my heart you’ll be On the lake, the busy little beaver Gnawing at the trees to build their dams A canoe cuts through the glassy water As the spotted trout around them swiftly scram Up ahead, on the bank, the moose are feeding A pair of loons are resting in the reeds In the treetops there are chickadees and bluebirds In the sky there’s an eagle flying free Nova Scotia I hear your ocean calling Nova Scotia I see you in my dreams Nova Scotia you whisper in the morning Forever in my heart you’ll be Forever in my heart you’ll be (repeat Forever in my heart you’ll be). ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nova Scotia Dream is an original composition it is literally a soundscape of Nova Scotia through descriptive lyrics and instrumentation. It paints beautiful vignettes of Nova Scotia’s ocean, rivers and lakes, the wildlife that abounds in them, and the peaceful lifestyles and activities they support. This song really hits a nerve with the listeners particularly those living away. They have been known to cry when listening to it. Genre Folk & Singer-Songwriter Comment by JjoeriD I heard this track almost a year ago, and still every few months I listen to it again. This track is so beautiful and differentiates itself with such high quality! 2022-02-19T10:37:38Z Comment by noel herrity Clear as a bell vocal ! 2021-03-14T11:31:19Z
