True North Songtext
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
