Further North

(专辑： Perfecting Loneliness - 2002)

The road tonight is cold with ice, and no cars pass by
Thank god for no phone call, just snow and a fire
December endings and since you sent me things, I just feel further north
This year took ten years to tell me that I'm alone again

Everything here's about to break
I'm one inch from more than I can take
And it's beautiful and sad but it's all that I have
So tonight, let's stay inside

I'll be the husband with a book for a bride
Tonight, let's stay inside

I could play guitar
I've got so many songs that you never heard, and they weren't about you
And I won't change a word just because you're gone

The trees creak with their arthritic arms
Brittle in their powdered bark
Blue moonlight, I can't cry right
But I miss you tonight

Everything here's about to break
I'm one inch from more than I can take
And it's beautiful and sad but it's all that I have
So tonight, I'll stay inside

There are things that I'd like to try with you
But I stay inside
Tonight, I'll stay inside

I could play guitar
