Song for Canada Full Lyrics

How come we can't talk to each other any more? Why can't you see I'm changing too? We've got by far too long to end it feeling wronged And I still share too much with you Just one great river always flowing to the sea One single river rolling in eternity Two nations in the land that lies along its shore But just one river rolling free. How come you shut me out as if I wasn't there What's this new bitterness you've found? However wronged you were, however strong it hurt It wasn't me that held you down. Why can't you understand I'm glad you're standing proud I know you made it on your own But in this pride you've earned, I thought you might have learned That you don't have to stand alone Lonely northern rivers come together till you see One single river rolling in eternity Two nations in the land that lies along its shore But just one river, you and me
