I have been listening to CJYQ-am, St. Johns Newfoundland on the web. One thing that is very annoying is they do not tell you what songs they play and it does not apear in the browser/media player. I have heard this tune at least a dozen times, but a google search does not turn up the artist or lyrics, so naturally I come here to ask for help.

The song seems to be about a Maritimer who moved away from his home and hopes to get back before he passes on. He has two sons, one a Pilot one and Architect who are too busy to help, he had a daughter who died in "The fire of 64" and his wife who "was taken by the sikness"


The chorus is...How I wish that I was stronger, to make the trip back home but it's so hard when your alone....

So anyone recgonise the song and can you tell me title, album and artist please?
Thanks
Nick
