La La Loon
A melancholy love song about the daughter of a Wandering Star, from The Land Called Forever (Northern Minnesota) -- a land of hidden lakes and summer insects and loons' calls.

She took the road from Ely,
And they called her La La Loon.
Her boots were cracked and worn,
And her coat was bramble-torn,
And where she walked they saw alight
The shine of summer moon.
La-da, La-da
La la la la Loon
Where you walked we saw alight
The shine of summer moon
From Manitou to Crow Wing,
There wandered La La Loon;
And at the county fair
She wove braids of her hair,
Yet was silent as the winter
When the sun is up by noon.
La-da, La-da
La la la la Loon
Where you walked we saw alight
The shine of crystal moon
And where wooded lakes were hollowed
There I courted La La Loon;
With a walleye on her line
She told me she was mine,
But from trees there came a whisper
That called her elsewhere soon.
La-da, La-da
La la la la Loon
Though I wander where you wander
I am lost without the moon…
When I saw her by Vermillion,
She we once called La La Loon--
She couldn't stay long,
But the insects were in song
And she flew away on loon's wings,
Shining like the Northern moon.
La-da, La-da
La la la la Loon
Where you walked we saw alight
The shine of summer moon
