The North Star Lyrics by Roddy Frame

The North Star

1998

[Verse 1]
I'm losin' my direction
Something's come between us
It's gettin' hard to do right
I'm searchin' for a sign
They've split us into sections
I'm from Mars and you're from Venus
But stranded in the daylight
Nothin' is defined
[Pre-Chorus]
But as the late summer honey light
Shifts and caresses the buildings
[Chorus]
Dark starry eyes
Searching the sky
Because it's hidden from view
Don't mean it isn't for you
You know we're gonna make it
We've only gotta take it
It's a dark, dark sky
Holds the north star high
And guides us and bathes us
In stillness and sameness and blue
[Verse 2]
I've made a big decision
In the light of the eternal
I'm gonna be your mirror
And you can mirror me
I'll see you in the bright star
Cushioned by the dark sky
Reflected in the river
Flowing to the sea
[Pre-Chorus]
And as the reasons and rumours recede
Dyin' on the lessenin' breeze
[Chorus]
Sweet starry eyes
Immune to surprise
Because it's hidden from view
Don't mean it isn't for you
You know we're gonna make it
We've only gotta take it
It's a dark, dark sky
Holds the north star high
And guides us and bathes us
In stillness and sameness and blue
[Bridge]
Blue is the colour of my heart
Since you blew my senses apart
The feeling we're back at the start never ends
As clusters of heavenly jewels
Gaze down on earth's lonely fools
Turnin' and twistin', resistin' the pull
Of a fate that's already been planned
That they can't understand
[Chorus]
Dark starry eyes
Searching the sky
Because it's hidden from view
Don't mean it isn't for you
You know we're gonna make it
We've only gotta take it
It's a dark, dark sky
Holds the north star high
And guides us and bathes us
In stillness and sameness and blue
I'm placin' my faith in the brilliance
Of the bright stars and you
