Northern star Song Lyrics
Northern star by Alice Peacock You were waiting at the end of the road
So I wouldn't miss the turn
On a moonless night with your flashlight
I was touched by your concern
Later telling stories about the places we had been
We cried in the kitchen when we talked about religion
You knew me when I was a girl
All mixed up about the world
And I guess it's fair to say
We're so alike in many ways
You're my Northern Star
That's what you are
When you were sick I brought you flowers
The by the highway sort
And we'd make love for hours and hours
On the couch on your front porch
I'm sorry I kissed your brother
But I thought I saw your face
When you were gone the next summer
You went so far away
I guess you thought we were dangerous
And you had to keep your distance
But I would've stopped the world for you
If you had insisted
'Cuz you're my Northern Star
That's what you are
It's hard to see the stars at night
In the city where I live
Even on my roof the busy lights
Make the summer sky seem dim
But I'm driving north tomorrow
Cross the border about ten
I'll be looking for your light to guide me in
And I'll dream I'm in your arms
Underneath the starry splendor
You will never be that far
I always will remember
That you're my Northern Star
