Lyrics
Oh Canada (I Miss You So)
©2026 (J.J. Shea Music)
From these distant shores,
Having closed all the doors.
Oh Canada, I miss you so.
Why did I ever go
Away.
(CHORUS)
From day to day
So many people say.
We would love to live
In Canada, in your home
Far away.
From this day I have sworn,
That this burden I have born.
Will never wear on me.
I’ll let the world see,
My Canada, my home.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
À l’avenir je peux voir,
Ce pays loins de moi.
Ô Canada, en arrive là?
C’est juste comme ça,
Comme ca.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
