lyrics

Drifting off a solitary sea
Blinded by desire to be free
My desperate heart longing to be seen
Sacred winds of time streamed you by my side
And stoked a fire on remaining ambers of my soul

And we met you were so present
We would only live the moment
Our love was meant to care for each other
You helped me understand I deserve to be loved
And made me feel worthy enough to be on earth

Chorus 1
Take me on the road to Skagway
A time to contemplate our hearts beat together
Let’s hit the stunning pass across the border
And share the mending tears that grow us better humans

And one day you harshly hit the ground
Now there’s no time for me around
You’ve found a home, an anchor to your life
How could I be sad to feel you’re sowing roots
Even if it makes me have to take another route

Chorus 2
Take me on the road to Skagway
A time to contemplate our hearts beat together
Let’s hit the stunning pass across the border
And share the mending tears that grow us better humans

Bridge

We’ve always known there’s a time for us to part
Forever on I will foster in my heart
Your tenderness, and your gentle smile
Should my faith ever start to falter, please let me always remember
A shiny day up on the road that brought us back to life

Chorus 3
Take me on a last trip to Skagway
Celebrate the days we had together
Our love will remain here at the border
Caring for the tears that grew us better humans

Our love will remain here at the border
Caring for the tears that grew us better humans

about

Lorène Charmetant image

Lorène Charmetant Whitehorse, Yukon

A departure from jazz and other more traditional genres, Lorène’s sound feels like a folk-pop masterpiece. Crisp, rich vocals are punctuated by driving beats. Electronic elements are present in an effective, subtle way while choral harmonies emphasize the strength in her vocals. The slower ballads are dreamlike, and her lyrics feel like a letter to a friend. ... more
