Have you seen the North
That cold gray place
Don't want it's shadow anymore
On my face A man grows bitter
We're a bitter race
Some of us never get to see
A better place In the Northern Skies
There was a steel cloud
It used to follow me around
But I don't see it now There's a farm in the rain
And the little farmhouse
There were a young man's eyes
Looking south The North was my mother
But I no longer need her
You trade your roots and your dust
For a face in the river And a driven rain that washes you
To a different shore
There's a North in us all
But my North can't hold me anymore The North was my mother
But I no longer need her
You trade your roots and your dust
For a face in the river And a driven rain that washes you
To a different shore
There's a North in us all
But my North can't hold me anymore A driven rain that washes you
To a different shore
There's a North in us all
But my North can't hold me anymore
