North Star Lover

(album: 100 Acres Of Sycamore - 2011)

Lover, lover, lover you are
Guiding us out of the woods
Lover, lover, lover you are
Are a north star, burning

She shifts her weight to the other foot
Asks me how deep I'd like the cut
Sharpening her words

He kicks out the door wedge
And walks her to the ledge
Points out to the ocean

I hear that you're living in, that house out by the lake
Things that fall together, just as easily break
I'm not looking back though

Lover, lover, lover you are
Guiding us out of the woods
Lover, lover, lover you are
Are a north star, burning

Ah, ah
Ah, ah

We wrestle with the tide
Till there was nowhere to hide
Laid bare on the rocks

Things came into focus sharp
With the morning came a spark
That lit the fuse for sorrow

I hear that you're living in, that house out by the lake
Somewhere down the road, beside you I wish to wake
I'm not looking back though

Lover, lover, lover you are
Guiding us out of the woods
Lover, lover, lover, you are
Are a north star, lover

Lay your head, on the river bed
The tears we shed, gonna burst the bank

Lover, lover, lover you are
Guiding us out the woods
Lover, lover, lover you are
Guiding us out of the woods
Lover, lover, lover you are
Are a north star, turning

Ah, ah
Ah, ah
