PUP (band) - Yukon lyrics

In the Yukon valley Where I spent my summer past I was alone in the bush where The tide's slow and the river moves fast And, oh that golden temptress That golden witch We were on the tundra In a land where the sun don't set In the Yukon valley Where you left me You left me on my knees On the Athabasca Delta We retraced our tracks All through the woods where we found A compa** and a prospector's mound And I pushed off in my boat With the gold prospector's ghost Search forever But you won't ever find your gold The river swallowed it whole In the Yukon valley Where you left me You left me on my knees On the great slave river To the West To the West, I'm headed East In the Yukon Valley To the West I watched you dying As the temperature was rising In the Yukon Valley Where you left me You left me on my knees On the great slave river To the West To the West, but I'm heading East
