"Northern Star" lyrics

Her hair's a field of autumn leaves
She always talks in poetic motifs
And her eyes could cause a deer to halt in the road

Her fiery wit
Her passion for change
If she said, "go and do it"
I'd do it again a thousand times again
Cause loving someone's never come so natural
You're my northern star
Take me back to the roads we'd driven
Where we fucked up your car
Driving 15 over prison
All the deer in the valley know the sound of my exhaust
We were girls in the forest
We were bears in the frost
My northern star
She's my northern star
Foggy mountains frosty rain
We would drive 'til the sun went down and do it over again
Cause the sun don't shine as bright as souls like hers
Tyler Childers' Lady May
As we sang 'til our mouths went dry and talked into the day
In the quiet moments I can hear her say
You're my northern star
Take me back to the roads we'd driven
Where we fucked up your car
Driving 15 over prison
All the deer in the valley know the sound of my exhaust
We were girls in the forest
We were bears in the frost
My northern star
She's my northern star
And I know
She gets me the closest to home I've ever been
And I know
She loves me like fire loves oxygen
And I hope I'll never know a world without her in it
Cause I can't imagine not loving something so genuine
You're my northern star
Take me back to the roads we'd driven
Where we fucked up your car
Driving 15 over prison
All the deer in the valley know the sound of my exhaust
We were girls in the forest
We were bears in the frost
My northern star
She's my northern star
You're my northern star
Take me back to the roads we'd driven
Where we fucked up your car
Driving 15 over prison
All the deer in the valley know the sound of my exhaust
We were girls in the forest
We were bears in the frost
My northern star
She's my northern star
