Head North

Somewhere, ND
We met in someone's wake Whose, I don't remember But there were widows and whitecaps all around As we sat silent and kept pretending "I want to see it all, you know," she said "I want to live for always and all the lives there are" As if she hadn't heard me Maybe she did We sat there silent and kept pretending That either of us knew the reason we had come Or why the other had come And I never got to know her And she never got to know me That's the way it goes So it goes, in love and onward But I felt the light from that infinite sky And the voice of the blessed center said, “Rekindle. Arrive.” I never believed in one breath after that I never believed it was the same sun rose that set And every night when the dark would come on I'd believe there was no absence strong enough To keep the day within or without We hit the earth There was a wonderful crash SongtexteAnd everything took fire Everything caught ash It was over As simple as we were put here we were gone The crew compartment's breaking up And the passengers are strewn All across the fields of North Dakota So it goes, in love and onward But i felt the light from that infinite sky And the voice of the blessed center said, “Rekindle. Arrive.” Aus Songtexte Mania
