Labor Day

We bathed in Lake Superior And I caught a hint of fear in your voice When you asked what we would do With the power of choice Water droplets blurred by view of you And the water chilled through and through But my imagination caught fire Silhouetted by the northern sunset You were posed to inspire Oooo, that was Labor Day Oooo, but September is so far away The view from the balded mountaintop Self-heralded strength from the outcrop Raindrops just seemed to appear Despite mist and fog in the atmosphere My vision was crystal clear The lake rose and then poured out on us Respect and fear gave birth to trust Until morning's puffy face Sent thunder rolling across the bay The Great Lynx fell back in place Oooo, that was Labor Day Oooo, but September is so far away Oooo, that was Labor Day Oooo, but the magic is so far away
