True North

(album: Gloria Duplex - 2019)

Driving north and looking right,
There was a wild sight
The whole pine forest was alight
And the night sky flew with snow
(Did you pull over?)
Yeah, of course I did
It's a long story, I'll tell you later
I felt Sophia in the room
In the way you walked in

Was I looking up your skirt?
Yeah, of course I was
I was drowning long before the storm came coastal
But I was coming up for air
When you found me there
And you pulled me onto shore
Yeah of course you did
With your true north

Driving south and looking right,
There was a wild sight
The whole Pacific was alight
And the night sky full of moon
(Did you pull over?)
Yeah of course I did
It's a long story, I'll tell you now
Are you busy?
Are the veils up or down?

I was looking up your skirt
Yeah, of course I was
I was drowning long before the storm came coastal
But I was coming up for air
When you found me there
And you pulled me onto shore
Yeah of course you did
With your true north

I grew up so slow
And so fast
First the time wouldn't go by
And then it wouldn't last
(Did you pull over?)
Yeah, of course I did
It's a long story, I'll tell you later

Was I looking up your skirt?
Well, of course I was
I was drowning long before the storm came coastal
But I was coming up for air
When you found me there
And you pulled me onto shore
Yeah of course you did
With your true north
