True North

(альбом: 20/20 - 2020)

Do you remember how it felt when it all crashed down?
Cause I've been trying to forget, but I swear that I still hear the sound
What started as a gentle hum, began to quiet down
It's turning to a ring, and getting louder now
Chipping away at the pavement outside your house

Shut my eyes and hope I wake up
To the wave of the breeze from your screened in porch
Just promise that you'll leave the light on
To point me toward true north

Can you feel the arrhythmic sound of the rain beating down?
It's getting steady now, but I still feel something hanging around
With every second glance all in and out of phase
We're few and far between and getting further away
Been tripping over the coastline since I left town

Shut my eyes and hope I wake up
To the wave of the breeze from your screened in porch
Just promise that you'll leave the light on
To point me toward true north
So hold on tight until I'm back home
Turn away from the dark when the sun goes down
Just promise that you'll leave the light on
To point me toward true north

Leave the light on
Leave the light on
Leave the light on
Leave the light on

Shut my eyes and hope I wake up
To the sound of the rain on your screened in porch
Just promise that you'll leave the light on
To point me toward true north
Hold on tight until I'm back home
Turn away from the dark when the sun goes down
Just promise that you'll leave the light on
To point me toward true north
