Bright North Star Lyrics by Jake Hodges

Hopeless Romantic

2019

[Verse 1]
Do you remember when you would say that we could change the world
And you'd sit there with the wind in your hair and I'd watch the breeze lift your curls
And I was so afraid I'd see the day that you would go away
That lulling of the tides would call you in one day
[Chorus]
But here we are and I don't know what I'd become
Of the light that was my bright north star
Leading me home when I had nowhere left to go
I'm running circles in the dark
And now I feel so far
And I don't even know who you are anymore
And I know this for sure you're not the same as you were
And this right here is what I'd hoped to avoid
Cause everything I'd had has turned to glass and been destroyed
[Verse 2]
And I was stricken in that moment when I gave you all I had
The look you got my silent heart to leave inside
Your eyes they glossed over, oh, and then you disappeared
And I still wonder where you found that was better than here
[Chorus]
But here we are and I don't know what I've become
Of the light that was my bright north star
Leading me home when I had nowhere left to go
I'm running circles in the dark
And now I feel so far
And I don't even know who you are anymore
And I know this for sure you're not the same as you were
And this right here is what I'd hoped to avoid
Cause everything I'd had has turned to glass and been destroyed
[Bridge]
And here I lay inside a void of empty space
It's been long since my light would surely fade
Nights they suffocate my bright and beating heart
Is in sight to pull the stitches apart
And I don't even know who you are anymore
And I know this for sure you're not the same as you were
And this right here is what I'd hoped to avoid
Cause everything I'd had has turned to glass and been destroyed
