True North |
| He called as soon as he hit New York City |
| The highway was like ice and the wind was turning cold |
| He wanted me to know how much he missed me |
| And my picture keeps him going on the lonely road |
| True north, that’s where my one star lies |
| True north, if only I could fly |
| My heart would be a compass |
| Leadin' to his side, headin' true north |
| He called a hundred miles west of Chicago |
| He said, «It must be snowing all the way to Tennessee» |
| I couldn’t bear to say, «Back here, it’s springtime» |
| What good is this southern sun when the one for me is |
| True north, that’s where my one star lies |
| True north, if only I could fly |
| My heart would be a compass |
| Leadin' to his side, headin' true north |
| Sometimes I count the miles that run between us |
| I lie awake and wonder how much farther can we go |
| He called last night from outside Seattle |
| Said, «There's a star up in the sky that our love can follow» |
| True north, that’s where my one star lies |
| True north, if only I could fly |
| I’d be the fastest bird that ever graced the sky |
| Headin' true north, headin' true north, headin' true north |
