Shannon Murray – Waa-izhichigeyang lyrics

Driving home under northern lights
I'm thinking things I think I shouldn't be thinking
I feel silly and so shy
Because you're just good enough to read my mind

So much sadness in your smile
Don't want to be more trouble on your mind
So just lay back and close your eyes
And I will sing you a little lullaby

Aaniish waa-izhichigeyan noongom
Aaniish waa-izhichigeyang
Aaniish waa-izhichigeyan noongom
Aaniish waa-izhichigeyang
Gaganoozhishin

Such an inopportune time
Feeling this I just shouldn't be feeling
But then I look at you and you smile
Would you be kind enough to ease my mind

Aaniish waa-izhichigeyan noongom
Aaniish waa-izhichigeyang
Aaniish waa-izhichigeyan noongom
Aaniish waa-izhichigeyang
Gaganoozhishin

This is all metaphor and fantasy
Until you say it's something more
I don't want to know what it is to feel
Something only half real

Aaniish waa-izhichigeyan noongom
Aaniish waa-izhichigeyang
Aaniish waa-izhichigeyan noongom
Aaniish waa-izhichigeyang
Gaganoozhishin
