There in a blizzard of light An old man is walking He's leaving his Eskimo life And knows where he's going Out where the caribou run This wilderness desert He sits alone on the ground Shaking and silent Something is coming to take him away Where his long life will be ended After his life has been taken away He'll be reborn returning Please save him, polar bear Release his spirit Take him to where he'll be born again You know him, polar bear As many before him You took them where they'd be born again He threw his spear one last time No longer a hunter He left his family behind His work for them over All his treasures were placed in the ground Wait for his returning He will be born strong again A new life beginning Something is coming to take him today Into the cold blinding storming After his life has been taken away He'll be reborn returning Please save him, polar bear Release his spirit Take him to where he'll be born again You know him, polar bear As many before him You took them where they'd be born again Gracefully He laid his burden down Awakening To a new life Something is coming to take him today Into the cold blinding storming After his life has been taken away He'll be reborn returning Please save him, polar bear Release his spirit Take him to where he'll be born again You know him, polar bear As many before him You took them where they'd be born again
